Honoring Our Heroes: The Fallen Comrade Table 🇺🇸

This Memorial Day weekend, we pause to remember the brave men and women who gave everything for our freedom.

The Fallen Comrade Table is a solemn and symbolic tribute to those who never returned home. Every item on the table holds meaning:
🍋 A slice of lemon, for their bitter fate.
🧂 A pinch of salt, for the tears of loved ones left behind.
🌹 A single red rose, for the lives and loves lost.
🕯️ A candle, for hope and remembrance.
🇺🇸 And an empty chair—to remind us they are no longer with us, but never forgotten.

Take a quiet moment to reflect, remember, and honor the heroes who paid the ultimate price.

In November, at least 1,000 sailors and marines will come to Texas during Fleet Week for the first time in their 250 years of service to explore and interact with the public. https://abc13.com/16247674/

Thank you!!

Happy Birthday!
