Same at my father’s funeral. I appreciated it, and the young men who performed it, very much. It’s pretty much all I remember of that day.

It was beautiful. When they folded his flag and handed it to my mother, saying "Thank you for your husband's service to our country" - that's when I lost it.

When that young female officer handed me the flag that had covered my father’s coffin, I understood what America is.
I will never surrender.
