As a nation, we owe it to the brave men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms to join together each year in honor of their memory.
Absent their willingness to defend our nation, the life of every American would be vastly different and we all would not be able to enjoy the benefits of living in the greatest nation in the world. We owe them a debt that we will never be able to repay and we must always remember their bravery and heroism.
I encourage you to join me and thousands of our neighbors as we pay tribute to our heroes this Memorial Day. Please utilize the information below to find a parade or observance in your neighborhood.
Please have a safe Memorial Day and God Bless America.
Senator Chris Jacobs
