The two boys left at home, Jeff Jr. (17) and Jared (13 who had attended many events with his Dad) are both working and saving money and don't want to end their jobs before the summer's over. Grandparents will stand in while e're don there.
I am looking forward to meeting the Missus. It will be neat to see her as we acknowledge her husband's efforts that have kept him far from home and in the front lines. I know she is far more proud of you than we are - which is saying a lot.
