I’ll remember Miranda Mathis, Layla Salazar, Uziyah Garcia, Tess Mata, Makenna Elrod, Eliana Garcia, Xavier Lopez, Jayce Luevanos, Jackie Cazaras, Amerie Jo Garza, Alexandria Rubio, Eliahana Torres, Jailah Silguero, Nevaeh Bravo, Maite Rodriguez, Jose Flores Jr., Rojelio Torres, Annabelle Rodriguez, Alithia Ramirez, Irma Garcia and Eva Mireles, 19 students and two teachers, slain at a school in Texas. I will also remember the 32 people murdered over the last 16 days in our country, in Buffalo at a supermarket, in a church in Laguna Woods, Calif., and in an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas. However you remember those who have been lost-placing flowers at graves, silent observances at home, parades, a toast to honor a deceased love one-it is a day to be grateful for those who have sacrificed so much for our country.
We mourn those lost in service to our country.
