Girl Scouts of Southern Illinois CEO Loretta Graham shared this statement:
On
this Memorial Day as we commemorate the lives of all brave service members who
died while serving in our country's armed forces, let us remember how much we
owe them, how much they have given us, and how much we can never fully repay.
And as individuals, as a community, and as a nation, we say to each and every
service member who has passed, we love you and honor you for your service. You
fought with strength and courage for this country and for its safety and its
ideals. The highest merit is due to the soldiers who have died so that we may
have the freedom to live not just today, but everyday here in America.
Have
a Grateful Memorial Day!!
Loretta Graham, CEO
