This is a tribute to my son, David, who comes home tomorrow from deployment!

HIGH FLIGHT

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings.
Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
Of sun-split clouds--and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of--wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there
I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air.
Up, up the long delirious, burning blue, I've topped the windswept heights with easy grace
Where never lark, or even eagle flew-
And, while with silent lifting mind I've trod
The high untresspassed sanctity of space,

Put out my hand and touched the face of God.


~~~~Pilot Officer Gillespie Magee~~~~
Killed 11 December 1941



GOD BLESS OUR MILITARY
GOD BLESS AMERICA

WELCOME HOME AND GOD BLESS YOU, DAVID!

Oh, this is wonderful that your son is coming home!! How excited you must be!

God bless you and him, and all of our military and their families!! (My son's name is David too.) :-)

Give David a Finest hug from all of us.

Tell your son "Welcome home!" and thanks for a job well-done!

Too bad Crawford isn't closer to Odessa or I WOULD stop by and say "hi"--I'm really looking forward to the rally but don't know how I'll deal with that Texas heat...it gets hot here, but Texas is another story!

Our troops are worth it :-)

More prayers from the great state of Texas for David and his family.
