Today, on National POW/MIA Recognition Day, we pause to remember the heroes who never returned home and those whose fate is still unknown. Their courage carried them into the darkest of places, and their sacrifice reminds us that freedom is never free.

For every name unspoken, every chair left empty, and every family still waiting—today we honor their strength, their service, and their memory. May we never forget, and may we always keep faith with those who served.

🕯️ You are not forgotten.

Have you ever heard of a fantasy coffin? In Ghana, people like to be buried in containers that represent their lives. It's believed that if the deceased is properly honored, such actions secure spiritual favor for the family left behind.
Caskets have been shaped like planes for pilots, fish for fishermen and even a Mercedes-Benz for a businessman.

When Walter Morrison died in 2010, his family cremated him and turned him into the very toy Morrison invented in 1955, then under the name Pluto Platter. It would later become one of the most successful toys of all time under the new name adopted by Wham-O: the Frisbee.
