     Today, we give thanks to our veterans who no longer can muster out on the fields or in our cemeteries.  We do remember your devotion to our country and we will always – always - be grateful for your service and life-long devotion to our flag.

     The following is the wartime prayer of Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, wife of our 32^nd President of the United States, Mr. Franklin Delano Roosevelt:

 

Dear Lord,
     Lest I continue
          My Complacent way,
     Help me to remember that somewhere,
          Somehow out there
     A man or woman died for me today.
     As long as there be war,
          I then must answer
     Am I worth fighting for?
