We Will Remember Them



At the 11th hour,
           of the 11th day, 
                   of the 11th month...

We will remember them.

  2. I remember as a schoolgirl selling poppies and memorizing In Flanders Field. Do children still do that in school, I wonder?

    My father took Veteran's Day seriously and expected us to also. He and 3 of his brothers served in WW II and all came home safely. He never forgot the many who did not and he taught my sisters and I to remember them.

  5. Poppies for remembrance of so many. . . . . and today, in 1942, my parents were married, this is always a very emotional date for me. The sun has has actually decided to make an appearance here after many dismal days - it makes the day even more special.

    Your photo is lovely Lorrie.
    Thinking of those long gone and all they gave.

    So beautiful, Lorrie. The veterans have forever changed our lives for the better.

    I thought I had you on my blogroll but I think with changing blogs, I misplaced it. I am glad you commented and am following you.

    Have a lovely evening!

Thank you for your comment. I read and value each one, cherishing the connections we can make although far apart. Usually, I visit your blog in return, although if you ask a question I try to contact you directly.
