Wow, this is the most feel-good story of this Memorial Day. Brought tears to my eyes.

I found the story on PJ Media and was going to post it. Glad you posted it earlier tonight. Thanks!

Glad they have a flat spot to put coins a such remembrances at the gravesite. Our Federal Cemetery has engineered all the headstones and space around the stones as curved as can be. Not one singular spot you could leave a quarter. Made me sad.
