Memorial Day: It’s easy to forget what’s really important on a lovely extended weekend like this one. Adam Smeltz asks in his column today that everyone take a moment to remember why stores and schools are closed.
‘We are a nation born and sustained through the courage and blood of our forebears. Our very presence as Americans is their legacy, and a sacred responsibility we dare not take for granted on any day.’ — Adam Smeltz.
