Each January, on the third Monday, we celebrate the life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., a man of peace who was assassinated on April 4, 1968, while standing on the balcony of his motel room in Memphis, Tennessee. As we observe Martin Luther King Jr. Day, may we remember Dr. King’s vision for equality, dignity and respect to all human beings. We honor the values he exemplified and remember his teachings of courage, truth, respect, integrity, humility and service.
