Dear Neighbor,
On Thursday we formally celebrated Veterans Day. Check with your local American Legion and VFW posts for additional activities marking this important day that are planned for this weekend.
I want to take this opportunity to publicly thank my fellow veterans for answering the call when our country needed their services to protect the freedoms and way of life we continue to enjoy today.
Please consider these brief words by an unknown poet that captures the essence of Veterans Day:
While we were here at home,
They traveled land and sea,
To make sure we stayed safe,
To protect and keep us free.
Words are not enough;
To give them what they’re due.
On Veteran’s Day please thank them
For their service, to me and you.
Please be safe as we encounter our first bit of winter weather.
Sincerely,
Dale
