And there it should be! This hangs on my wall - sorry for the poor quality of the photo - I just shot it sitting here at the computer>



My Father's Shadow Box. It's reassuring to see it anytime I lift my view from the monitor.

That's what I'm looking to get for my Dad...a shadow box. I faxed all the requested paperwork to the VA yesterday. His ashes will be interred at Fort Richardson National Cemetery on August 2nd.

I’m sitting here chuckling.....whoever wrote these directions has not tried to follow them.

Directions from nearest airport:
From the Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport take West International Airport Road approximately four miles to the New Seward Highway (doesn’t go through to NEW Seward....turn on OLD Seward). Make a left on New Seward Highway and travel approximately one mile to Tudor Road. Turn right on Tudor Road. Travel approximately seven miles and make a right turn onto New Glenn Highway north (Tudor and Glenn Highway run parallel). Go approximately four miles on Glenn Highway and take the Ft. Richardson/Arctic Valley exit. Turn left and proceed to the guard’s gate. You will then be on D Street. Follow D Street 1 1/2 miles to 6th Street and turn right on 6th Street. Follow 6th Street 1/4 mile to the T intersection and turn right on Davis Highway. Travel one mile; the cemetery will be on your left.

I hope those with GPS get better directions. d:o)
