Happy Memorial Day, everyone. A member of our church passed away earlier this week. He was a fine man, missionary, good friend, strong Christian, and friendly guy. He was also a military veteran. Didn't know that until I heard that his funeral was yesterday at the Houston National Cemetery. He served his country well. He went on about his life. He was honored as a last act of gratitude by his fellow servicemen and citizens with a funeral of full military honors. This happens every day at this and other National Cemeteries around the country. He did not die during his military service but it reminds me of many of those who did, some in just the past days. Lets take some time this weekend to remember those who gave a sacrifice that can only be given once, and honor them in our hearts.
Have a great Memorial Day!
