75

I should have approached this topic sooner, but Thursday was the 75th anniversary of the German surrender that ended part, but not all of World War II.

Others have said it better, so I won't go in to detail here.  Reading about it evokes happiness and sadness at the same time.  There was relief a horrible time in world history was coming to an end.  On the other hand there was so much sadness over all the deaths, the hardships here at home and in Europe.  The destruction.  The waste.

Memorial Day is coming up in a couple of weeks and it will be much different this year.  Please, take a moment to remember the sacrifice.
