Memorial Day Reflection: Gratitude for Our Nation’s Heroes

May 23, 2026 2 mins read

It was a true honor to attend the National Salute to America’s Heroes Dignitary Reception during Memorial Day weekend in Miami Beach. Every year, this important event brings our community together to honor the brave men and women who paid the ultimate sacrifice defending the United States of America and protecting the freedoms we enjoy today. 

As Miami-Dade County Tax Collector, I remain deeply grateful to all of our heroes, veterans, active military members, and their families for their courage, sacrifice, and service to our nation. 

God bless our heroes and God bless the United States of America.
