Somewhere along the time line of everyday life, the Memorial Day weekend became closely associated with a 3-day kick off to summer, Route 1 bumper-to-bumper traffic and the unmistakable smell of hamburgers on backyard grills; while the true meaning of the holiday took a back seat. This weekend at Cornerstone we set aside an hour to try and right the perspective. Memorial Day is when you should remember the high cost to what we too often take for granted, freedom. So, before you gas up your car to head toward the beach or start thawing out those Angus patties, set aside a moment to honor those who paid the ultimate price, with their lives, the American soldier.
