Kim Klement Neitzel-Imagn Images Happy Memorial Day to those on the other side of the border. I’m not sure ‘happy’ is the right word. It is good to have a day to think about the people who went to war, something I know I could never have done. I’m a wimp. There is no way I could have gone through a war.
