Memorial Day: A Day Of Remembrance

On this Memorial Day, while you’re enjoying the beautiful weather and events with family and friends, remember our nation’s fallen heroes too.

We at the Rita Boswell Group – Keller Williams Capital Partners appreciate the sacrifice made by those who have fought and died for our country. We wish everyone a safe and happy Memorial Day!

On This Memorial Day
By Emily Toma

Remember those who served before.
Remember those who are no more.
Remember those who serve today.
Remember them as we eat and play.
Remember our protectors-
who are not home today.
Remember them all on Memorial Day.
