A Monday memory....

In honor of Memorial Day I would like to share the following quotes. I believe it is important to remember the true meaning of this day.  
As has been said, "All gave some, and some gave all" in defending our freedoms and serving our country. We owe them, and their families, a tremendous debt of gratitude.

"Through their deeds, the dead of battle have spoken more eloquently for themselves than any of the living ever could. But we can only honor them by redirecting ourselves to the cause for which they gave a last full measure of devotion."
                                                                        ~ Abraham Lincoln

"True heroism is remarkably sober, very undramatic. It is not the urge to surpass all others at whatever cost, but the urge to serve others at whatever cost.
                                                                        ~ Arthur Ashe
