Veterans Day

A heartfelt thank you to all the Veterans who have served and are serving in the Armed Forces. And hugs and prayers to all of their families who may not wear a uniform, but who serve as well.
Thank you to my Dad who is a career Navy man and a veteran of Korea and Vietnam. I am so grateful that he came back to us when so many did not.
Thank you to my Uncle Dick  who is a career Marine and a veteran of Vietnam.
Thank you to my Uncle Lidge who was a career Marine and a veteran of Vietnam.

  1. That's a lot of service years from your family. I'm grateful for their service too, though I'll probably never meet them. What a sacrifice by them and your entire family! Only because of men and women like them do we remain free! God bless them all! ---"Love"

  2. I am so with you. Today is my son Joseph's birthday. He was a Marine and is an Iraq veteran. Yesterday was the birthday of the U.S. Marine Corps. I am very proud and very thankful.

  3. The readiness or your family members, mine and that of others to defend our rights and freedoms should never be taken for granted. ann :-)
