“The memory of the righteous will be a blessing.” Proverbs 10:7 (NIV) This service will honor the memory of those who served their nation. A Memorial service allows for the com-
munity to come together and give thanks, to pass onto our children the knowledge of the sacrifice that was made for them, and to teach youth how to say “thank you” to those who have served. A service such as this can
create new traditions that families and communities can uphold together and remind everyone to be grateful for the freedom and riches for which we have been blessed.
