On behalf of the members of Manhasset Post 304, American Legion, I would like to thank all the participants in our annual Memorial Day Parade. 

Also, a big thanks to all the friends and neighbors who came out to cheer us on.  We also extend our gratitude and support for a group that nobody wants to join – but has given so much to their country – the Gold Star families.

We observe Memorial Day once a year, these families remember their fallen loved ones every day. 

Children without parents, Gold Star mothers and fathers, spouses and siblings – they can still hear the voices of those they lost. 

It is up to us to now hear the voices of these families, offer our support and express our highest gratitude.

For God and country.

Peter J. Killian
