Memorial Day message from Mayor Smith
Posted on: May 29, 2023 - 8:01am

It is right and fitting that today, Memorial Day, we pause to remember and honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation, our way of life and the freedom we may, too often, take for granted.

For many, the last Monday in May marks the unofficial start of summer, a long weekend with a family barbecue or gathering of friends. Yet, we must never fail to remember the men and women who lost their lives defending this great nation.

Harry Truman, once said, “Our debt to the heroic men and women in the service of our country can never be repaid. They have earned our undying gratitude. America will never forget their sacrifices. Because of these sacrifices, the dawn of justice and freedom throughout the world slowly casts its gleam across the horizon.”

So, let’s carry their sacrifice with us in our hearts and strive to honor their memory by being good and faithful, hopeful and strong, and committed to building a brighter future for all. - Mayor Rich Smith
