It was a lovely ceremony. I was happy to be able to take my daughter, but surprised at the low turnout (even though it was larger than in the past). Disappointing more couldn't take a few minutes to honor those who served.
Was there in spirit. Thanks to all for honoring our veterans and those who serve.
