I have set up two blood drives in honor of Taylor Burk.

The first one is Wednesday March 16th and the next one will be Thursday March 17th.

I have been talking to my brother, Joe about this and he is so thrilled to know that Burk is being honored by many who will never know him.

My brother is recovering (thanks to Burk) but the painful loss of his friend has been very difficult for him.

He met Burks family at the funeral and spent some time with them. They treated him like a son and he was deeply touched by their kindness.

What a wonderful man and soldier this was. He is greatly missed!

***PING***

SoldiersSister, I just wanted to share with other Freeper's your Blood Drive in the name of Taylor Burk. What a wonderful idea. I also appreciate the other comments on this thread as it pertains to your brother and his friendship with Taylor. It does humanize one of our finest.

I hope many turn out and let us know afterwards. Perhaps those I ping can forward this to their ping list and address book letting folks know of the blood drive.

If you like to read other posts by SoldiersSister please do a search or read the entire thread.

God Bless you and your brother Joe and thank him for his service and I hope he recovers quickly.
