Thanks for a thoughtful Emery column

I want to express my gratitude to Kristin Emery for her thoughtful column about the 73rd anniversary of the D-Day Invasion on June 6.
There was no mention of it in the Observer-Reporter that day. I know a few surviving World War II veterans and we could not understand why there was no mention of it in the newspaper. Emery’s column brought a smile to their faces.
We cannot forget about these veterans. We need to give thanks to all veterans every day, not just Memorial Day and Veterans Day.
