On this, the birthday of our Nation let us remember all the men and women who have given their lives to keep us free.  There are many mothers and fathers, husbands and wives, grandparents, sons and daughters, brothers and sisters, as well as other family members and friends, around the country shedding tears today because their loved one paid the ultimate price for all of us.   Let us honor  and remember them and say prayers for the famalies, for we know their pain and sorrow all too well.
