All the memories I have of him have some flooding back...
I sent him a lot of stuff when he was in Iraq..
One of his favorite things was the PGR flag that had flown on Mr Bs Harley on many missions.
The Flag was a little tattered, and had specks of oil on it, and he LOVED it.

A cute story..
I sent him a little 4x4 remote control car.
He had more fun with that silly thing.
He told me he taped a pack of smokes to it, and sent it racing around .
His “kids” were trying to catch it so they could have the smokes!
LOL

One time at the cottage, he spontaneously started imitating the little Swedish chef from the muppets.
Then, he sang “BORK BORK BORK”, and tossed some kitchen utensils behind him.
All of us just collapsed with helpless laughter.

Thanks for the good times, TT.
We love you, and we will miss you terribly.

Thanks, TS...he “shared” his deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan and NAS Fallon with us. He will be missed.

Hope school is going well for you, that your students are back in the swing of things.

I remember the car...such fun for him.

I remember one batch of Reese's I sent him in Afghanistan. They arrived melted together. He shared everything we sent, but he kept the "blob" of Reese's to himself, laughing about trying to eat them. I actually found a Reese's plush toy on ebay and sent it...

Understand everything ---no we don't.

Accept everything -- no we don't.

Trust God to get us through all -- yes we do.

Rest in peace brother and patriot. May you be in God's presence with perfect knowledge, a perfect new body and keep a place warm for us
