SOME GAVE ALL

On the way home from the ballgame yesterday, we stopped by Prospect Hill Cemetery in York. One of the best reasons to go to a game in York is to get to drive by and see all the American flags. I am proud to have served our country in the United States Navy and thankful for those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. On this Memorial Day when we remember what they did for us, "Thank you" just seems so inadequate. I love the words to Billy Ray Cyrus' "Some Gave All" and know that many have their Sandy Kane. Happy Memorial Day America!

I knew a man called him Sandy Kane

Few folks even knew his name

But a hero was he

Left a boy, came back a man

Still many just don't understand

About the reasons we are free

I can't forget the look in his eyes

Or the tears he cries

As he said these words to me

All gave some and some gave all

And some stood through for the red, white and blue

And some had to fall

And if you ever think of me

Think of all your liberties and recall

Some gave all

Now Sandy Kane is no longer here

But his words are oh so clear

As they echo through out our land

For all his friends who gave us all

Who stood the ground and took the fall

To help their fellow man

Love your country and live with pride

And don't forget those who died America can't you see

All gave some and some gave all

And some stood through for the red, white and blue

And some had to fall

And if you ever think of me

Think of all your liberties and recall

Some gave all
