This is out in front of my place for everyone to see.
It’s the missing man table.
So please. At your party this weekend. Leave a drink out for the men or woman that couldn’t come home.
The table is round – to show our everlasting concern.
The cloth is white – symbolizing the purity of their motives when answering the call to serve.
The single red rose reminds us of the lives of these Americans
A slice of lemon reminds us of their bitter fate, captured and missing in a foreign land.
A pinch of salt symbolizes the tears of our missing and their families - who long for answers after decades of uncertainty.
The lighted candle reflects our hope for their return – alive or dead.
The Bible represents the strength gained through faith, to sustain us and those lost from our country, founded as one Nation under God.
The glass is inverted – symbolizing their inability to share a toast.
