A Memorial Day Salute by Doris Steimer
From Central Park Historical Society Encyclopedia
They gave their tomorrows for our todays
We visited their graves in memory of all they
sacrificed and to say, "Thank You"
Once Decoration Day, is now Memorial Day.
Flags fly row on row to honor all those brave souls.
They gave so much, each who served
Do we remember?
Let not all they gave and those still serving,
be lost or forgotten.
Keep their sacrifices imbedded in hearts and minds.
Valor, honor, sacrifice, flag and country!
Land of the free "Because of the Brave!"
