... The least we can do is remember, .... (Image © 2012, Karla Dorman, copyright added.)

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).
