Getting organized is fun... Hope you both can agree on which drawer the silverware should be in, and which way the toilet paper turns :~)

Here's more...

http://kotv.com/news/?111087

News on 6 reporter Heather Lewin was at the cemetery and what struck family members and friends, was the outpouring of support they saw as they traveled to Corporal Shoemaker's final resting place. Hundreds of people, who likely didn't even know Jared Shoemaker, lined the streets as his casket passed. The Ford glass plant shut downs operations and flew a flag to honor the fallen Marine. Family friend John Evans: "It was unbelievable, just the traffic coming out here, the people lining the highway with flags saluting, the police at attention. Jared would've had no idea."

The jedis and I were standing across the street from the glass plant. The glass plant stopped production and the entire plant and their family members were lining the street. A guy in a suit came across the street to where we were standing and gave us some flags and invited us to stand with their company. The Patriot Guard was there and some veterans groups too and an honor guard.

Video.

When they mention the Ford glass plant, we're in that footage.

I'm so glad we did this...for the family, I'm just so glad.

One more thing...

The traffic on the *interstate* stopped, as the procession was going by...the entire interstate stopped.
