Celebrate freedom
Once again we celebrate our freedom as we remember the signing of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, as the birth of our nation 234 years ago. Ironically this was the day that King George III would write in his diary, “Nothing of importance happened today.”

We need reminders to remember
Memorial Day is a day to remember those who have died in our nation’s service. This national holiday was once called Decoration Day. It was officially proclaimed in 1868 by General John Logan when flowers were placed to “decorate” the graves of Union and Confederate soldiers at the Arlington National Cemetery.
