Ladies and Gentlemen,
My thoughts for this  Memorial Day!

On this Memorial Day we pay tribute to the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country that were dedicated to the worthy cause of freedom, and not one of them died in vain. From colonial America to the Persian Gulf, from places such as the Argonne to Normandy, Inchon, and Da Nangthey fought and sacrificed so others might live in peace, free from the fear of tyranny and aggression. On this Memorial Day, our hearts should swell with thankfulness and pride as we reflect on our Nation's enduring heritage of liberty and Freedom. Let's also remember three of our own NABV members (James Worley, Clinton Grimsley and Eugene Huggins). James an Army Decorated  First Sgt. And Vietnam Veteran was one of our founding members and who provided our original seed money. Clinton Grimsley, a board member who not only fought in Vietnam, but fought Throat Cancer just as bravely. Eugene Huggins our First Vice President who died from complications of Agent Orange which he was exposed to during his service in Vietnam. These are just a few of the thousands of brave men and women who have paid the ultimate price for our freedom, along with their families who still are experiencing their loss. Let us never forget them!

but rather to skid in broadside,  thoroughly used up,totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming  --
WOW-- What a Ride!"
