Send your Memorial Day tributes

Posted at 7:18 AM on May 22, 2009 by Bob Collins (2 Comments)

It's really not supposed to be the first "holiday" of the summer season; Memorial Day is supposed to be about those who served their country --and are now gone -- in whatever way the times dictated. Like so.

Who's on your list? Please send me a few paragraphs about them and, if possible, a picture and on Monday I'll present the roll call.

At least I think he did. Grandpa, who died two years ago, was known for his good natured approach and not for his ramblings about the war. Although he would never purchase a Japanese car he loved all his neighbors. I know the war changed him but I only heard a few stories.
