Willie Robertson is remembering those who gave their lives in service to our country. 

"Memorial Day is one of the closest representations for humanity of what we see in the Gospel, people literally laying down their lives for others," Robertson told Fox News Digital. "Remembering our fallen soldiers helps keep us focused on the important things in this life. Their sacrifice should never be forgotten. 

"Our freedom was paid for by brave men and women who died for something other than themselves and bigger than themselves. It is rooted in mission, love, and country, which is people. Which sounds like Jesus’s story as well," he added.

Memorial Day offers a chance for the solemn remembrance of those who served our country.
