Enjoy the day and remember what it's about.
Happy Memorial Day!
I am sure some of us remember growing up and Memorial Day being a time to thank our grandparents for their service in a World War or Vietnam.
Today, things are different, and we work with many men and women who spent time serving abroad before joining us wherever we serve our community.
Let’s be sure to give them an extra nod today.
Keep Pushing Back
