Remember A Veteran Who Made a Difference in Your Life

Many people know someone who has died while serving this country—whether it’s a friend, a brother or sister, a parent or grandparent, or a husband or wife.

While these fallen soldiers should be celebrated, thanked and remembered throughout the year, Memorial Day is an especially good time to pay respects.

Eagan Patch wants to help you do that: From now through Monday, we’re asking readers to submit reflections and/or photos of veterans that played a key role in their lives.

To leave a reflection, please add a comment below. To share a photo, click on “Add your photos and videos” to the right.

Also, if you’re in town this holiday weekend, Eagan is hosting a ceremony at the Tribute & Memorial plaza in Central Park, starting at 2 p.m. For more information check out www.eaganlionessmn.lionwap.org.
