Memorial Day


Next door to where I work the Traveling Vietnam War Memorial has been set up. My older brother Gene did 3 tours of duty in Vietnam during his enlistment. I'm so thankful his name is not on "The Wall". But that war forever changed and damaged him. It is heart wrenching to see all of those 58,000 names. We are an Army family, my dad made the Army his career(27 years), my brother of course, my sister Margie too. And now my nephew Brian (Margie's son, who is currently stationed in Korea) is in the Army also. I ask that you to say a little prayer for all the men and women serving in our militaries, fighting for our freedom and putting their lives on the line. Thank you.
