In honor of Memorial Day, I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt reverence to the men and women who’ve given their lives for our great country.

Friends, please join me in offering the deepest of all gratitude to our fallen soldiers and their families.

So many brave Americans have made the ultimate sacrifice to protect our great nation and democratic way of life. We owe our basic freedoms -- freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly, and petition -- to their heroic efforts.

These fallen soldiers fought to uphold and defend our Constitution and to safeguard the principles of freedom, the rule of law and equal protection thereunder, democracy, and justice for all. As we honor their lives, it is important to reflect upon the principles they so courageously defended. These principles serve as a reminder to us all of the unity of purpose we share as Americans and the profound meaning that lies in every instance we lose a service member on the battlefield.

In honoring our fallen soldiers, we must never forget these principles and do all we can to uphold them with every fiber of our being. And we must always stay ready to declare our allegiance to our flag and country, express our commitment to the unity of our nation, and to abide by our Constitution at every turn.

For our fallen soldiers, their families, and the meaning behind their sacrifice, let us never forget.

God bless their souls and God bless America.

-- Antonio
