We hope you have a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend. We’d like to ask all of our friends to join in remembering the real meaning of this important Holiday. Memorial Day is a somber reminder that freedom is not free. Everything we have, everything we love, and every activity we’ll enjoy this Memorial Day weekend, is a gift to us from the millions of men and women who have served in our Armed Forces. Honoring those who bravely answered the call of duty to our Country is important to all of us at SomeWhere. Memorial Day pays tribute to them. Those of us who never put on a uniform will always feel a sense of helplessness on this holiday. No words can describe the debt we owe to the dead of our wars. In a Memorial Day speech in 1982, President Ronald Reagan acknowledged how feeble words are as we give testimony to those who loved their countrymen enough to die for them. But Reagan went on to say we have a duty to them and to ourselves: “Yet, we must try to honor them—not for their sakes alone, but for our own. And if words cannot repay the debt we owe these men, surely with our actions we must strive to keep faith with them and with the vision that led them to battle and to final sacrifice.” May 31, 1982
