This is a general post to the canteeners to updated you or give you word on what is going on with Skyraider's Wife (Old Sarge's and My Mother)
She suddenly passed on Friday the 26th. The calls to the family went out to the kids, but one was doing his Duty in Iraq. It was my job to get in contact with him.
There are a few members of FreeRepublic that came thru in our time of need. You know who you are. We were able to contact Old Sarge and he was on a satellite phone to our house within 10 hours of our call out to FR's members. The Marines that were near him gave him a satellite phone and Father and Son were in contact.
The Red Cross found him two hours later and started the process to get him home, in time for the viewing and burial. This is all less than 4 days time.
We thank you all for you messages and prayers. Please ping all that need to see this.
Wake, and Skyraider.

No mere words can convey what we feel for you guys. I'm glad it worked out for Sarge, and I'm hoping your Dad knows how much support he has.

Jhn 5:24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
Rom 6:22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
Take comfort in the knowledge that the lady you all so loved is in the loving arms of the Lord and on that joyeous day of redemtion we will all be together again in His Grace.
