As a country, we have
set aside special holidays
to memorialize your family's
sacrifice to our nation.
Your family feels your
loss daily and not merely
on special days of honor.
Thank you for your ongoing
sacrifice that is born of your loss.
It is certainly a price we all regret
was paid with honor and courage.
Know that we are thinking of you.
Though these words seem so little to offer...
THANK YOU.
