Thanks to all the Veterans for their service in keeping America free! May your blessing be many.

God Bless all our past and present Military People and their Families!!! They have all sacrificed SO much for us. My son, whos in the ARMY, (stationed by Kristy and Lucy) will be going on his second tour to Iraq next month. knotz

Rosa, I'm sorry for your loss. It is a very special honor to be buried in a military cemetery. Two years ago both my mother and father were dying. My dad went first. I managed to keep it together until the ceremony in the cemetery when the honor guard presented me, as the oldest child, with a flag and said words to this effect, "The president of the United States thanks your father for his service to the Country." The tears poured down my face. Six days after dad died, my mom died, and we were back at the cemetery. Every time I visit, I am struck by the number of grave markers and I remember the sacrifice made by so many of our countrymen. Thank you, Veterans and your families. And let's hope we can end these wars soon, so all of our troops can come home.
