This coming Monday, Nov. 11 is Remembrance Day. Let us all offer up a prayer for those wonderful men and women, who unselfishly sacrificed their lives so that we could live in this wonderful, free country.  In the case of my generation, freedom and democracy are gifts that were handed down  to us by previous generations who struggled through world wars to earn those gifts. “Lest We Forget.”
