A Memorial Day thank you.

A new tradition with my family here in Boston is to go into Boston on Memorial Day wknd and pay respect to the 37,000+ men and women from Massachusetts who have made the ultimate sacrifice for the preservation of peace and freedom for my family and this country. Boston puts 1 flag in the big park in the middle of the city ("Boston Common") for every casualty of every war since the revolution in which a Mass resident has died. This is a somber holiday. This is an important holiday. As I type this I have daughters sleeping without any care that their lives or freedom could be threatened by a foreign threat, because they have total confidence that there are heroes in our military right now that ensure their lives, and our way of life, remains protected and defended. 37,000 from one state is huge. but the larger number far surpasses a million for our whole country. Staggering price for freedom. I cannot imagine the pain endured by the families and loved ones of these fallen heroes. But, I do hope they can imagine how appreciative my family is for the sacrifice and service.
I hope every Jobcaser is having a great 3 day wknd with their families and friends, but lets all please remember to take some time to reflect on what this day off is all about - remembering those that make our everyday freedoms -and our country itself -possible. Thank you, heroes. Thank you families of these heroes. God bless you and God bless America.

#memorialday #heroes. #thankful
