 U.S. Rep. Mike Thompson, D-St. Helena this weekend  released the following statement in honor of Monday’s Memorial Day:  

 “On Memorial Day, we honor the men and the women who laid down their lives for our nation’s most treasured and highest ideals: that tyranny and oppression are worth fighting against, and that freedom and liberty are worth dying for. 

 “Because of our servicemembers and the sacrifices they have made, our country’s beacon continues to shine brightly above all others, guiding freedom-loving nations and people everywhere.  

 “So, let us pause and remember the generations of soldiers, sailors, airmen, Coastguardsmen, Marines, Merchant Mariners, and members of our intelligence community who have given their life to make our way of life possible. And let us honor their memory by praying for peace – for the day when war is not a reality, but a far-distant memory.”
