#22 - Jane's interview of Glick the family. It was awe-inspiring! The wife said she knew he was supposed to be on that plane. He was supposed to be there so he could stop the plane from accomplishing it's mission. Jane said the family all believed the goal of the plane was to hit the capital building.

I think it helps these folks to believe he didn't die for nothing - his death had a purpose!

What a brave and gallant man I saw on Fox News Channel with Brit Hume last night. Two men who have both suffered the loss of a loved one through tragedy. God bless them both and their families.

Who can find a virtuous wife?
For her worth is far above rubies.
The heart of her husband safely trusts her;
So he will have no lack of gain.
She does him good and not evil
All the days of her life.
...She opens her mouth with wisdom,
And on her tongue is the law of kindness.
...Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing,
But a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised.
Give her of the fruit of her hands,
And let her own works praise her in the gates.

Proverbs 31:10-12; 26; 30-31, NIV.

In loving memory.

The last words from Rush to Barbara in their interview tore me up as I read them just now ...

Rush: All the best — and stay safe.

What a fitting tribute.
For two who loved so to be seperated on this earthly plain
On one of theirs birthday
My prayers go out to them.

I was watching my husband sleep just now and had a moment to reflect....

With a lump in my throat, I'm bumping this for BKO.
