Happy Memorial Day weekend to all Avery Pro-Staffers and MB members/guests. I hope everyone gets the opportunity to share time with friends and family and that all the grills and turkey fryers get a good workout over the next 3 days.
While you are at it, please take a few moments over the weekend to remember the reason for this holiday observance and reflect on the sacrifices that others have made for the preservation of our country and way of life.
"It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
Gettysburg Address/Abraham Lincoln
