Let
every nation know, whether it wishes us well
or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear
any burden, meet any hardship, support any
friend, oppose any foe to assure the
survival and the success of liberty. -
President John F. Kennedy
Memorial
Day is a time to recommit ourselves to the
values and principles of America for which
our veterans fought. What better monument to
our fallen heroes than for all Americans to
strive to be better, more active citizens
proudly exercising the basic freedoms and
responsibilities for which they fought and
sacrificed - voting, participating in public
meetings, supporting and encouraging our
public officials and employees, making our
communities, our Commonwealth and our
country better for each succeeding
generation.
