IN MEMORIAM COL. KENNETH REUSSER, USMC, WWII, KOREA, VIETNAM, DIED JUNE 20, 2009

I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)

Eternal Father, Strong to Save

REST IN PEACE, FALLEN BROTHER!

Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in peace!
We who remain hold you in high honor.
Rest, fallen brother, in this sacred precinct;
We who remain keep this place sacred.
Rest, fallen brother, among these, your comrades;
We who remain keep the watch.
Rest, fallen brother, amid these who heeded the Nation’s call;
We who remain press the fight forward in your name.
Rest, fallen brother, lay down thy burden;
We who remain have taken up the torch.
Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in eternal peace!

Good evening, Kitty Mittens.

Sorry that I didn’t get back earlier.

It seemed that nothing went right this morning, so I went shopping. LOL

Your black and white kitty is so pretty. Thank you for bringing her to Caturday at Amy’s.

Have a Blessed Sunday.

[JustAmy]

Good evening, Everyone.
Thank you for your contributions today.
Thank you for spending part of your Caturday at Amy's.

Good night, dear Friends. Sweet Dreams.

[Kitty Mittens]

Those Kitties are Precious, Dear Amy, and a Joy to the Eye after a Difficult Day. Thank you!

Goodnight to All FRiends, and God Bless!

Welcome To Sunday At Amy's Place

Romans 8:28
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love
Him, who have been called according to his purpose.

~Blessings To All Who Enter Here~

[jaycee]

Lovely graphic and frame...matches perfectly. Thank you for this opening and beautiful scripture, too, Meg! Wishing you a Blessed Sunday.

[MEG33]

Good Morning, jaycee

Thank you for your lovely compliments..
I made a Hummingbird cake this morning..I had forgotten about
some green bananas I had put away to ripen and salvaged them just
in time..I was not planning on baking a cake!
Have a wonderful Lord's Day.

[jaycee]

~~Have A Blessed Sunday~~

[jaycee]

You will not believe that yesterday I made a recipe folder on my computer and went through a bunch of recipes to copy into the folder. And there was the Hummingbird Cake recipe. It started with yorkie’s Peach Cobbler and then I couldn’t stop!
I knew if I didn’t transfer them, they might get deleted eventually! (you said you weren’t planning to make a cake...I know because yesterday you were going to do the cobbler...LOL!) Guess the bananas changed your mind!

[Billie]

Oh, Meg, this is the prettiest thing - so simple, yet so soft and elegant. I love the verse you chose with it.

[MEG33]

Thank you for this beautiful blessing and graphic, jaycee
I had decided to put off the cobbler baking until I got some
butter..I did not have a cake as one of my prioities at all!

It is another easy cake to make, thouugh. I'll freeze some of it.
I have fresh strawberries and angel food cake to finish off.

[Billie]

This is beautiful, jaycee! It doesn’t go unnoticed that your first graphics after the opening “match” the day’s openings in color, or theme, or both. You and Meg BOTH are so good at that!

[Billie]

Just looking at your Goognight Graphic - those kitties sleeping are adorable!
