“𝐒ILENT SCARS ARE CARRIED BY THOSE WHO REMAIN, BUT FREEDOM BEARS THE FINGERPRINTS OF THOSE WHO FELL.” — 𝘜𝘯𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸𝘯
This 𝘔𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘭 𝘋𝘢𝘺 weekend, we pause to honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country, and we remember those who remain missing but are never forgotten. As a veteran-owned dental office, we carry a deep appreciation for the sacrifices made by our military community and their families.
For this reason, our office will be closed 𝘍𝘳𝘪𝘥𝘢𝘺, 𝘔𝘢𝘺 22𝘯𝘥 and 𝘔𝘰𝘯𝘥𝘢𝘺, 𝘔𝘢𝘺 25𝘵𝘩 in observation of Memorial Day.
The courage, dedication, and selflessness of those we've lost have protected the freedoms we hold dear every day. We are forever grateful to those we have lost and those still unaccounted for.
May we always remember their sacrifice, honor their legacy, and be mindful that their absence is the quiet cost of our freedom
