Prayers for them and their sacrifice to freedom for all the world.

When I was growing up the men and women that that I encountered at the store, in school, the postman and the janitor, the motorcycle hooligan and the librarian, the cop and the priest, my aunts, uncles, cousins and my father, these men and women were for the most part veterans of WWI, WWII and Korea. These are the people that I learned my base values from and even though I may have strayed from them in my younger days, those are the values that always brought me back to the right course. Truth, fairness, compassion and stand up to evil, fight for what is right.

I will be forever greatfull and they have given me a debt that I cannot ever repay even though I try my best every day.

God bless them and their families, may we never forget them.
