I missed posting the last few days. I was out of state Monday and had to run around for some pre-op stuff on Tuesday.
Normally I make a post about Memorial Day. It has more meaning to me than I suppose most. I lost a good friend to Iraqi Freedom in 2006. I miss him and not just on Memorial Day. He was my son’s godfather and not just an acquaintance.
His memory will always be with me.
I also think about the millions of Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines that have died in defense of this country. I think about it a lot differently than I did when I was younger. It’s not just the “unofficial start of summer” for me.
I pray for the safe return of those currently deployed and know full well that some will pay the ultimate price and will have a profound effect on their loved ones and friends forever.
To them, I say thank you. To their families, I say thank you. God Bless you all.
