PROCLAMATION
Veteran's Day: November 11, 2025
The United States of America was founded upon the noble principle that every
individual should bask in the blessings of freedom and liberty.
We, as a nation, cherish and savor these privileges, understanding that they have been
upheld through the countless sacrifices made by our U.S. Veterans, including those who
are from or have lived here in our Columbia Heights community.
It is with solemn hearts and profound respect that we recognize the enduring sacrifices
of countless Americans who made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of the cherished
freedoms and liberties that resonate not only with all Americans but also with people
around the world.
We humbly acknowledge that the debt owed to America's Veterans can never truly be
repaid in full, for no single day or observance can ever suffice to honor the heroic men
and women who committed their lives to safeguard the very principles of freedom and
liberty that define our nation.
It is our solemn duty to reflect upon the immeasurable contributions and sacrifices
made by American Veterans, recognizing that their unwavering commitment has
played an integral role in shaping a world that aspires to be one of lasting peace.
Now Therefore, be it resolved that I, Amada Marquez Simula, Mayor of Columbia
Heights, do hereby proclaim November 11, 2025 to be Veteran's Day, in the City of
Columba Heights, County of Anoka, State of MN, U.S.A. a day to not only honor our
Veterans but also to reflect on the importance of their service in forging a path toward a
world that one day may genuinely embrace the ideals of peace, freedom, and liberty for
all.
These brave individuals, whether drafted or volunteering, have contributed
significantly to the betterment of our nation and the global community. They deserve
our utmost respect and gratitude for their enduring dedication to building a brighter
future.
