That's so touching, 2J. I know his family appreciated such an outpouring of love and respect for this man.
The family commented to the news after the graveside service that it meant so much seeing all the people on the side of the road.
I'm glad. That's what I was trying to get across to the boys. We didn't know the guy, but we sure appreciate him and what he did and we sure want the family to know it. To ease the pain a bit, perhaps...
And it sure is nice to be able to say to my boys "Put your school away, we have something important to do." and just do it.
