This Memorial Day weekend, I want to take a moment to recognize the incredible staff of Boston Veterans Services. 🇺🇸

Our team took time out of their own schedules these past few weekends to ensure our veterans and fallen heroes were honored with the dignity and respect they deserve.

From planting flags at veteran graves to decorating Hero Squares across our neighborhoods, they showed up because they understand what this weekend truly means.

Memorial Day is more than a long weekend. It is about remembrance. It is about honoring sacrifice. It is about ensuring that those who served and those who made the ultimate sacrifice are never forgotten.

I am grateful to work alongside a team that leads with heart, service, and commitment to our veteran community.

To the OVS team, thank you for honoring, respecting, and recognizing those who served our nation and the families who continue to carry their legacy forward.
