Pets become members of the family and losing one can be very painful. August 28th is known as Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day, which is a day dedicated to remembering the furry friends that we have loved and lost. If you have ever had a beloved pet pass away, please share a photo of them and their story in the comments so we can celebrate their life today and keep their memories alive. These photos are the fur babies our team members are sharing.

For Memorial Day, we remembered and honored the brave men and women of the United States military who gave their all in serving our country. We are thankful, too, for their brothers and sisters in arms who continue to honor and recognize their fallen comrades. The Marines and Cub Scout Troop 307 placed fresh US flags on all the markers of the Veterans buried in our Veterans section at Woodridge Memorial Park. What a beautiful and humbling sight to see so many flags displayed.

Today, we pause to remember the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.

Their sacrifice is the reason we gather, reflect, and stand together in gratitude.

We honor not only their service, but the lives they lived — the families they loved, the dreams they carried, and the legacy they leave behind.

May we never forget the cost of freedom, or the people who paid it.
