Memorial Day Services in Washington and Culpeper this week probably never considered patriotism or honoring those who died in battle an on/off proposition. The loss of a son or companion burns into memory like a leaky faucet’s incessant drip, drip. .
Senior citizens at the Retired Senior Volunteer program in Washington went a step beyond honoring those who have died. In March, they sent greeting cards and letters to servicemen stationed in Beirut.
Like the adage that goes, “don’t wait until someone dies to tell them,” honoring them anytime could be the most appropriate thing a patriot can do.
