This Memorial Day is a little different than most. Today, as we recognize our service women and men, we also recognize our frontliners – the countless firefighters, nurses, doctors, and others – who have sacrificed everything to protect us.
Each day, our emergency workers put themselves at risk of coming in contact with COVID-19 without proper protection. We’ve lost too many of these selfless workers.
Those bold enough to serve leave a lasting legacy. Linda’s grandfather served in World War II and earned his citizenship, ensuring her entire family would be Americans. More than 70 years later, her family remembers how he shaped our futures.
Today, we’ll be thinking of all the families – military and frontline – and honoring their loved ones’ legacies.
