Thanks to all of you for finding the time and energy to show the troops that there are Americans who respect them and are grateful for what they do.
My mother just passed away today...we had been expecting her to pass on this week sometime, and tough woman that she was, she just hung on.
My two brothers, my nephew and I will be traveling to Washington DC sometime in the next two months to bury her remains beside my father, who has been in Arlington since 2000.
I have suggested to all of them that we join the DC Chapter outside Walter Reed on Friday night when we do come down...and they readily agreed. I hope to see all of you again when we do.
