Being Memorial Day weekend and the fact that many of us live distances from where we grew up, I thought it would be fitting to offer a place on QP where members could leave a memorial for a friend of family member who has given his/her life in death or in time during the service of our country.

God has blessed our country with generations of individuals who have understood the cost of freedom and have paid the greatest price. I pray that we could continue to live today with that kind of understanding. God bless America
