FReeper Canteen - Happy Thanksgiving!- 25 Nov 10
Happy Thanksgiving to your Troops, Vets & Military families!!! | The Canteen Crew

Posted on 11/24/2010 6:13:33 PM PST by AZamericonnie

The Canteen table is set so everyone gather round & share your Thanksgiving memories, what you are thankful for, recipes, menus etc & don't forget.....the first one up from the table does the dishes!:)

THANKSGIVING IS....

Thanksgiving is a
time of gratitude to God,
our Creator and Provider,
whose guidance and care
go before us...
and whose love
is with us forever.

Thanksgiving is a time
to reflect on the changes,
to remember that we, too,
grow and change
from one season of life to another.

Thanksgiving is a time
of changing seasons,
when leaves turn golden
in Autumn's wake
and apples are crisp
in the first chill breezes of fall.

Let us remember the true meaning
of Thanksgiving.
As we see the beauty
of Autumn, let us acknowledge
the many blessings
which are ours...
let us think of our families
and friends..
and let us give thanks in our hearts.

As we spend this holiday with our family & friends we send special thanks to our men & women in the armed forces, past & present for the freedoms we enjoy due to your service & sacrifice!

I wear them around the house this time of year, too!
Gets mighty cold up here in winter.
Today was cold too, only 45 degrees, and 47 mph wind gusts..
BRR!

REST IN PEACE, FALLEN BROTHER!





SSgt. Sean M. Flannery, USA, 101st Airborne Division, KIA Afghanistan 22NOV2010




I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)


God Of Our Fathers



Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in peace!
We who remain hold you in high honor.
Rest, fallen brother, in this sacred precinct;
We who remain keep this place sacred.
Rest, fallen brother, among these, your comrades;
We who remain keep the watch.
Rest, fallen brother, among these who answered the Nation’s call;
We who remain press the fight forward in your name.
Rest, fallen brother, lay down thy burden;
We who remain have taken up the torch.
Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in eternal peace!
