On Memorial Day 2020 We Remembered Those Who Died For U.S.
Although we could not honor those who gave their lives for our freedom in person, we gathered virtually to remember those who gave everything for us.
Human Rights Attorney, Dave Rubino, offered words on hard earned freedom.
We listened to the Town of Old Lyme Poet Laureate, Roger Singer, read the following elegant poem, and appreciated the Lyme-Old Lyme High School Band performance of taps. Finally, there was a poignant moment
of silence at 3 PM to observe the National Moment of Remembrance.
Thanks to all who joined us for this moving event.
The following special poem is written by Old Lyme Poet Laureate, Dr. Roger Singer.
It is shared here with his permission.
GOODBYE, TOO SOON
roses cut short
like youth,
passed on before achieved
the worst of pain
the image of love lost
like satin folded, soft
the angels know, circling among us,
grieving to the song unfinished
with tears unable to revive
life
