I am reminded of the poem, In Flanders Fields, and a part of the poem I find haunting reads like this ~~ We are the dead... we lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, loved and were loved and now we lie in flander fields~~

Many thanks are due for our veterans and it is kind of you to remember them today, Kirstie. I don't think we'd have our freedom without them. Best wishes, Carolyn
