Red hearts in department stores, flower shops, candy stores, bakeries and window displays signal Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. Tuesday is the day for lovers and a day of friendship.

Legend says that Valentine of Terni, a friendly priest, who married young couples in love, died Feb. 14, 269. That’s why today, Valentine’s Day is being observed Feb. 14.

Candy, balloons, flowers and stuffed animals covered tables at the Ramstein Community Center, ready to be bought by people in preparation to celebrate the day of love. Members of the 86th Force Support Squadron prepared hundreds of gift baskets for this year’s Cupid’s Valentine Gift Shop.
