Memorial Day

Memorial day is a day to remember all the soldiers that died in active military services. The purpose of Memorial day is to honor soldiers that have died during wars. Memorial day is May 25 , the last Monday of May. Some ways to respect and honor soldiers on Memorial day is to support veterans, vote, fly the flag the right way, visit and support a National park and participate in the Four star salute.

"Nicest man in the world"

Patrick Morgan was called the nicest man in the world because he did was right. Patrick found an ipad and thousands of dollars with it and returned it to the authority to give it to it's owner. The owner gave him $60 for his reward, in my opinion that was a little ungrateful from the owners. Patrick donated his money to a homeless lady and that was very nice he didn't even spend the money on him self but others. Patrick Morgan did get rewarded by his boss for his honestly and hard work.

Worlds Nicest man in the world!
