Kathy, thank you for posting all of these pictures of Tonk’s funeral.

After nine years, it is amazing to see how well remembered Brian has been.

Here is a link to Tonk’s homepage. Most of the pictures don’t seem to reside anymore, but here is what was near and dear to Tonk’s heart.

If you can ping your members, they may want to take a look:

Good morning, Canteen.

Good morning to our

Military, our Allies, and their families.

Thank you for all you do.

Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities.
Ah, how nice to have a Tonk Remembrance Day!
Politics was his hot button, for sure.

Another day of post-n-run.
Have to take my 4-legged baby in for a weigh-in this morning, then
run some errands while out.
I will sneak in tomorrow to catch up on pings.
Had a hot, busy weekend, and got a sunburn
on chest and shoulders from Saturday (p.s. I did well at ArtFest).
And the ticks! My God they are bad this year.
We keep finding tick on us.

But please stay right where you are.
Chat up the military or a family member.
No need to fret...you know I'll be back!

The FR Canteen is

Come in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, tea,
pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS

REMEMBER THEM ~ DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM


FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT

Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allied military and the family members of the above. Honoring those who have served before.

Prayers for the souls of those killed in Orlando, and
peace for the families.
