WOW. What a great day. If you wanted to go to the flag retirement ceremony it is at Montclair Retirement Community, 1000 East Montclair Street. 1-block south of Battlefield and 1 Block north of National.
If you have never been, go and DO take the kids.
It was a great show with so many wonderful veterans. Happy Veterans Day and Glod Bless America!!
See ya on the radio!
ps the poems from the show were sent PDF files. I have to re-type them. Check back Monday.
I Remember You
ReplyDeleteWhen I walk into my church,
free and without fear,
I remember you.
When I see children playing in the school yard,
girls and boys of all kinds,
I remember you.
When I see families working together,
regardless of religion or nationality,
I remember you.
When I go to sleep
without worry for my family's safety,
I remember you.
When I see our flag waving in front of my home,
and when I can salute that flag without fear of reprisal,
I remember you.
When I remember you,
I think of the sacrifices you made
so I could have these things.
I think of your commitment
and your service beyond mere duty.
I think of all that you have given
so that I and those I love can be free.
When I pray at night and give thanks
for the blessings God has given,
I remember you.
