Today, we pause to remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation.

Memorial Day is more than the unofficial start of summer. It is a day of reflection, gratitude, and honor—a time to remember those who gave their lives defending the freedoms we enjoy every day.

We also extend our deepest appreciation to all who have served and continue to serve our country with courage, dedication, and selflessness. Their commitment reminds us that freedom is never free.

Chipola College will be closed today in observance of Memorial Day.

As we gather with family and friends today, may we take a moment to honor the fallen, support those who serve, and reflect on the sacrifices that have helped shape our nation.

🇺🇸 We remember. We honor. We are grateful.

We are honored to share the following poem as a tribute to EMS providers across the country who selflessly care for the American public in their greatest time of need. In honor of EMS week, thank you from all of us at Chipola College!

I see your people as you never see them.

Mighty and small they are beggars before me,
their faces all frightened, beseeching, bewildered
and hopeful of help from one more frightened than any...

I see their pitiful nakedness, their limbs twisted,
their bodies tattered, their blood on the asphalt, their children crying.
They trust me to help them. They know I will help them.

I see their illness too in your big cities. Their fevers I feel as you dream at midnight in little towns. They call to me whose hearts are aching and whose dreams are shattered and they touch me with their weariness.

Sometimes they seek me who are simply alone and
who cannot bear the night, and I am their servant too.

Fallen from tractors in fields I find them, and in stilled cars they are silent and pale on cold rainy nights. The crunching of glass under black heavy boots tells my coming. I fold them in blankets.

My beacons light up your streets as their babies are born. My wail carries down your boulevards, past your shiny glass walls, your stockyards and quiet farms, and your people look up from their work as I go by.

Time is metered in heartbeats.

I fight the battles to keep them alive.
I cover their eyes when they breathe no more.

My partner is a hero, but no one knows his name.
