A Salute
To Our Service, Fire & Police
Personnel - December 2016
OUR ARMED
FORCES,
POLICE PERSONNEL
and FIREFIGHTERS
As we enter this
holiday
season, a time when we invariably get caught up in the hustle and
bustle of
closing one chapter and opening another in our book of life, let us
pause and
reflect a bit, on our families, friends, acquaintances and even those
we've
never met or known. Every
time you pass a member of our armed
forces, a policeman or fireman,
remember that they have all taken an oath to defend and protect you and
yours.
A simple "thank you for your service"
goes a long way and crosses all
barriers.
To those, from Bunker
Hill to Afghanistan, who gave their lives and rest, in places known
only to
their Creator, and in countless cemeteries around this world, thank you.
To
those who risk their lives daily to protect us from the ravages of fire
and
disasters, thank you.
To
those who patrol our streets and neighborhoods, enforcing our laws, to
keep us
safe, thank you.
To
those who protect or rights and freedom, wherever you may be, thank you.
