Veteran's Day Thank You

Hopefully, we think about our Veterans and the sacrifices they make, everyday; but it is also nice to have a special day in their honor to remember and celebrate their service to our great United States of America.  As we go about our daily activities today, at work, school, shopping, or participating in a Veteran's event, I hope we take the time to remember that it is their sacrificial service that allows us to be able to go about our daily activities today and everyday.  We honor and thank our Veterans, past, present, and those yet to serve our great nation.

My dad and uncle, John and Lewis Goempler, both served in World War II.
