The holiday weekend we call Memorial Day has passed us by for another year. It is easy to get caught up in the BBQ’s and cookouts and forget what Memorial Day really stands for. My good friend and co-worker Lisa made me stop and think what it’s all about. She told me about her fishing trip with her step son Jason who serves in the Army and his dedication to his country. How that dedication spills over to the family he loves and the sacrifices they make as well. Lisa got to spend a little time with Jason over the weekend. Here are a few of her own words

Somehow enjoying the simple things in life are where it’s really at. Or should I say the “little” things in life. It’s hard to imagine dedicating your life for the freedom of others. This career Army guy is truly my hero. Thank you Jason and all the Jason’s out there who keep this country safe so we all can enjoy the “little things in life”.
