While Memorial Day heroes will never be forgotten, we at Lazenby Law Group certainly also recognize the true Hometown Heroes who walk among us each and every day.

It never hurts to remind our public how we view our heroes. Again, sports figures have admirable accomplishments, but with the exception of a few (Pat Tillman immediately comes to mind), they are simply not real “heroes.” Movie and rock stars shouldn’t even be mentioned in the same realm as the word “hero.” Indeed, it certainly seems as though many in our society have forgotten the true meaning of the word. The word “hero” is sacrosanct and should be viewed as such.
