The purpose of Memorial Day is to remind us that the freedoms we enjoy in the United States (and often take for granted) have a price—a price that is paid by the uniformed men and women of our armed forces. Take a moment today to reflect, and remember those who fell in battle to defend this great land.

“It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.” — George S. Patton

 Frank says:

Yes, Ladies and gentleman, even in this agricultural enviroment, We're gonna' play a love song -- This was about 1974 in Harrisburg Pa. at the Farm Show Arena, a week after the Farm show had left town... Frank never admitted to playing there, and I can't say as I blame him. But, I will never forget what a magical night that was.
