Hello there!
As we approach this holiday weekend, we'd like to take a moment to thank and honor our fallen soldiers who so bravely fought for our freedom. You are in our thoughts this weekend, and beyond.

For those of you still churning away this morning, anticipating the three-day weekend ahead, we promise not to keep you long and hope you have a safe, relaxing holiday. 

As always, thank you for all that you do.
