Under All Is the Land

By
Real Estate Agent with Dirt Road Real Estate SA676002000

Today is Memorial Day where we recognize, honor and pay tribute to those fallen military men and women who have willingly face death and succumb to death in the line of duty.  Their deaths allow us as professional real estate agents to sell land be it vacant parcels or residential homes or commercial properties.

As the Code of Ethics Preamble states:

“Under all is the land.”

Without the fallen protectors of our land, we would not have this great country. We would not be able to enjoy those: 

“certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

Many of us have had family members to friends who have given their lives to protect “under all is the land.” For me, I had a cousin who died at the Battle of the Bulge in WWII and two friends who died in Vietnam.

Thankfully my father, uncle and grandfather survived WWII as did my husband’s father. My husband also served and is a Vietnam Veteran. Our son served in the Navy. Here in Golden Valley, AZ there are numerous Vietnam Veterans as well as others residents who served in the U.S. armed forces.

Today, is a day to give thanks to those who gave the ultimate gift, their lives, so we can live and work in this incredible county where "under all is the land."  

Our patriotic duty is to recognize their courageous sacrifices, their lives, to protect our country and freedom. Thank you to everyone who has served our country, past, present, and future. #thehelpfulagent #home #houseexpert #house #listreports #memorialday #LetsGetBackToRealConversations #WeDoThingsDifferently #MemorialDay2025
