Happy Valentine's Day! We hope you are surrounded by those you love today. Don't forget that Monday is Presidents’ Day, a federal holiday originally established in 1879 to commemorate the birthday of George Washington, the first President of the United States. Since then, the holiday has evolved to recognize all presidents who have served the needs of the country.
