Happy Sunday and Happy (early) Memorial Day!
This is going to be a quick one.
It’s a long weekend here in the U.S., and I’m busy spending as much of it as possible with family. I didn’t even want to think about writing this weekend.
But I did want to say Thank You to all the families out there who have lost loved ones serving our country.
It can be easy to forget that the purpose of Memorial Day isn’t for all of us to get a great deal on a used car. It’s to honor those who have fallen, fighting for and defending our country.
So, if you know someone who has lost a loved one while serving, maybe reach out tomorrow and thank them for their sacrifice.
And if you want to go the extra mile, you can donate to an organization like Children of Fallen Patriots. They are a non-profit whose mission “is to provide college scholarships and educational counseling to military children who have lost a parent in the line of duty.”
I’m leaving you with a picture I took yesterday morning on my walk. I’m not a religious person, but this image was too eye-catching to pass up.
That’s it for this week.
As always, I would love to hear from you.

Very important message.
Loved the picture Randy. The cross silhouetted against the sunset—nice!
