HAPPY VETERAN'S DAY
Today we honor those who have taken up the call to duty and served our nation. Today let's give a big thank you to all of the brave men and women who have served and continue to serve our nation. You are a shining example of the best our country has to offer.
To the brave men and women of the United States Armed Services and the families who love them, Nina Hollander and Carolinas Realty Partners with Coldwell Banker Realty offer our thanks and eternal gratitude.
Veterans are our family, friends and neighbors. They are staples of our communities. One day isn’t enough to recognize their service, but we couldn’t be more grateful to those who served our great nation—both in our community and across the country.
WHEN YOU SEE A SOLDIER
By Kelly Roper
When you see a soldier
Be sure to shake his or her hand,
And let that soldier know you're grateful
For the protection the military affords our land.
But most of all, express your thanks
For every soldier's personal sacrifice.
In order to serve our country,
They risked their entire lives.
