Boots and Bouquets
Nov. 11 was Remembrance Day. As a retail business that depends on sales for its livelihood, should you open before the 11th hour on this day of remembering our fallen soldiers? Well, let's make a corporate decision, we'll open 8 a.m., but we will be sure to have a minute's silence at 11 a.m. Is this respectful enough? You be the judge.
A big bouquet to all businesses that closed for the day or opened at noon. That action was a great tribute to the many men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice that we might enjoy the freedom we do today.
A big boot to those who felt the mighty dollar was more important.
Lest we forget. Angie N. Gardiner
