Thanksgiving Day


May we recall the courage of those who settled a wilderness, the vision of those who founded the Nation, the steadfastness of those who in every succeeding generation have fought to keep pure the ideal of equality of opportunity and hold clear the goal of mutual help in time of prosperity as in time of adversity.

~ Franklin D. Roosevelt from the 1933 Thanksgiving Day Proclamation ~
