Across Central Nebraska today, flags wave proudly in our small towns, cemeteries, and along quiet country roads as we remember the men and women who gave their lives in service to our nation.

Memorial Day is more than the beginning of summer — it is a time to honor neighbors, friends, classmates, and family members whose sacrifices made our freedoms possible. Their stories and service remain a lasting part of the communities we call home.

As we gather with loved ones this holiday, may we also take time to reflect with gratitude and remember those who never made it home.
