So How Do We Honor Those that Gave the Last Full Measure– I Served with Heroes that Sacrificed Everything for US for our Freedoms&Liberties. Flying our Flag that they fought for, Maintain an Active Lifestyle with Health & Fitness is How.  

We sacrifice our time, our strength, and our efforts to develop our talents to earn a living for our families where they can have a life with opportunities. One reason that I maintain my health, fitness and an active lifestyle even at age 66 is to honor those that sacrifice their life to allow us to have the opportunity to enjoy the blessings of Freedom, Liberty, and pursuit of Happiness.

If you have an opportunity to attend a VOTECH College take it even if you have a degree in another profession. That hobby can become your second career when you retire as I have. I was a Grid Engineer for 33- years. I tell people that I don’t need therapy, I just need to burn rods, smell flux, and enjoy Heavy Metal.

I fly my flag, enjoy welding in my shop, working on my farm, and writing articles covering the benefits of Health, Fitness and Sports where these heroes didn’t make their sacrifice in vain. If I didn’t do this, I wouldn’t be living up to the expectation that I had with one of these Heroes during our high school years.

If I didn’t live this type of lifestyle of being active, it would be like having the skills to improve someone’s life and not taking that opportunity to help others. This Memorial Day I honor all those men and women whose names are engraved in stone and in marble that are at peace knowing they gave their very best for US. One particular Hero that I had the pressure to serve with, I remember each and every day of my life.

I found it my duty to write a Memorial Day article in honor of his life and sacrifice, below:

Remembering a Hero & Dear Friend on Memorial Day

Please take the time to read my tribute to a Hero that represents all those that gave their last Full Measure. Enjoy Your Memorial Holiday for those that Sacrificed everything. You might not know all of them, but if you know one of them that is how we honor them. Also This Memorial Day honors FIRST RESPONDERS as well!
