My girlfriend comes in from church today holding a Red Poppy.
The Pastor started his service with a memoriam of all who gave their lives in all conflicts, beginning with the Revolutionary War.  Halfway through the service he read a poem. During the poem, a Red Poppy was given to each church member. I thought it quite moving and touching that, he was able to include "In Flanders Fields" into the church service...

That's a nice touch!
