Memorial Day 2010

May 30, 2010.  The Memorial Day weekend is a time to reflect and honor our soldiers present and past.  On November 19, 2005, one of Kearny's residents serving in Iraq lost his life as a result of a road side bomb in Baiji, Iraq.  Army Staff Sgt. Edward Karolasz gave the ultimate sacrifice for his country.  On this Memorial Day weekend, we stop to reflect and give thanks for all that Army Staff Sgt. Edward Karolasz and others have done on behalf of our country.  Our thoughts also go out to the the Karolasz family and friends.
