~"Y'ALL COME OVER" 

This weekend, our country will celebrate Memorial Day. 

 We'll cook out, relax, and visit with friends and family. 

 As we celebrate the Memorial Day weekend,

let us keep in mind what we are "celebrating"~

those who made the ultimate sacrifice to ensure that Americans,

and people around the world,

would be able to reap the benefits of freedom.
