New Hampshire Honors Our Troops - Happy Memorial Day

By
Real Estate Agent with BHG The Masiello Group

FREEDOM IS NOT FREE    

Memorial - Nashua, NH   America's Cost of Freedom                                                                                  

     Our military personnel and their families pay a heavy price to help keep America strong and safe.

      Their wounds are both physical and emotional.  Many have significant medical challenges while others are homeless.  Families are strained trying to cared for loved ones who have come back with injuries. So, on Memorial Day we not only remember those who have given their lives so that we may be free, but those men, women and their families who have sacrificed their health and well being.   These families need support both emotionally and financially.  Collen PowellNashua NH Libary Hll

 

   

     "Your caring support can make the difference in whether someone succumbs to the darkness of isolation and dejection or embraces with new resolve their continued recovery to reach new potential."  

     Active Rain Members and friends, you are invited to make a donation to assist our veterans and their families by going to the National Memorial Day Concert website.  

               Have a safe Memorial Day and thank you to all who continue to make sacrifices so that we may live in this great land.

Super images..the purple heart always makes me think of the not killed in action but the maimed, leg, arm, eye less veteran that is among us, in those veteran's hospitals and rehab centers. We have much to be grateful for with freedom we enjoy in the country.

Gita - I hope that everyone take a moment or two to reflect and honor our troops.. both those who have sacrificed their lives and those that are still alive.

 

Andrew -- we must remember to take care of those who are still alive, but have been injured... they and their families need our help and our support.  Happy Memorial Day.

Hi Joan, A wonderful effort and I so appreciate the beautiful tribute you have presented. One of my past clients leads a group that honor the Purple Heart recipients ( in life and posthumously) and they do such wonderful work in honoring them. He presented me with a small purple heart likeness pin and I wear it proudly.

If all of us would stop to think about the men and women that have served our country so we can enjoy freedom, what a different in attitude there would be towards returning soldiers from ALL wars. Very nice post. Thank you.
