Today, we pause as a nation to remember those who never made it home.
Memorial Day is not about barbecues, long weekends, or convenience.
It is about sacrifice. It is about names etched into stone, folded flags placed into trembling hands, empty seats at dinner tables, and families who carried the weight of loss long after the uniform was folded away.
At Hartshorne Fire & Rescue, we honor the men and women of the United States Armed Forces who answered theirs, knowing they may never return.
Because freedom has always carried a cost. And somebody paid it.
To the fallen:
We remember you.
We honor you.
And we thank you.
Please keep the families of our fallen heroes in your prayers today.
