We started this gig in 2014. Today marks the 8th consecutive Memorial Day weekend that we’ve put up yellow ribbons to represent the lives of our fallen warriors to honor their sacrifice. We offer our gratitude. #MMD2021#HonorTheFallen#mindfulmemorialday#gratitudeforservice
Our special 2021 edition of Mindful Memorial Day at the Military Women’s Memorial at Arlington National Cemetery. 70 ribbons hanging all weekend to honor the more than 7000 US servicemen and women that gave their lives in service to their country. #MMD2021#mindfulmemorialday
On my first #MindfulMemorialDay back in 2014, I chose to honor the first fatality of the burgeoning War on Terror, which happened almost 20 years ago. MSG Evander E Andrews of Solon, ME perished October 10, 2001, within 1 month of 9/11, in Operation Enduring Freedom. #MMD2021
