Hope you enjoyed your Memorial Day weekend! Whether you spent it with family, enjoyed some quiet moments of reflection, or took advantage of the beautiful weather outdoors, the long weekend always seems to whisk by in a blur of relaxation and festivities. As we bid farewell to the unofficial start of summer, it's a perfect time to reflect on the significance of Memorial Day itself, honoring those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country while savoring the moments that bring us together.
