... The least we can do is remember, ....

Poem Artwork

How do you thank someone
for dying?  By not forgetting
the high cost they paid for

our freedom.  By ensuring
that their name will live on,
not just scripted on some

tombstone or Memorial
Wall, but on our lips and
hearts as well.  The least

we can do is remember,
not just on certain days
or when convenient, but

every day.  'Thank you' is
not enough to repay
service and sacrifice 

paid in full, but it's all I
have.  I can't.  I won't
ever forget:  Thank you.

By fellowship with the families of those lost. For they have suffered for the loss more than we (if we did not lose a loved one).
