I know how you’re feeling, jonny .... it’s
like a funeral .... all that’s dependable,
reassuring, and optimistic seems to be fading
away.

But I also know this is inherently a country
full of good, decent Americans, and I also
know God’s on His throne.

You’re so special... {{{jonny}}}.

That drawing is so tender and touching ...it
portrays this good man’s heart for people,
(just like yours) which is so huge, especially
for our troops. Once again, a masterpiece from
love.

Please pray for our troops ... God bless and
protect them now that their indefatigable CIC
and protector moves on. I’m grateful Sec.
Gates is there for awhile, which is a notable
shift from campaign rhetoric, now that reality’s
hit someone square on the coconut.

My thanks to all of you for all you
given to maintain this wonderful refuge.
I know what time and effort it takes.

We’ll always be Dosers ... I’ll never forget
the privilege it’s been to be a witness to
the daily life of a remarkable man who was
called by destiny, and handled the cards he
was dealt with exemplary courage and deep
honor and love for his country.

Millions of people, maybe 5-10 years from now,
will speak his name with respect and unending
gratitude for the blessed freedoms in their
lives. May we all be here to witness that time.

“... and an angel still rides in the
whirlwind and directs this storm”
