Loved your stories about this, deb! Indeed a small world to find one of our FReepers was a neighbor of one of our heroes we read about here!
I have a million memories of the Popaditch’s kindness.
When my casualty officer came to my house the first time it was to tell me that Don was MIA. It took 48 hours for them to change his status to KIA. Mariah’s 7th birthday was 2 later. April had a birthday party for Mariah at her house. Really, April is one of those angels here on Earth that you hear about every once in a long while :)
