Veterans

To the many vets that can never be personally thanked for their ultimate sacrifice, to the many vets that served, their lives changed forever, to the many vets that gave a portion of their lives, to veterans of tomorrow, serving now, risking their lives, sacrificing time from loved ones to keep us safe here at home, to the one vet that helped raise me - words are not enough, let us not ever take for granted your gift to our country.

Thanks Dad.......and many, many others

Sorry this is late on Veteran's Day, but my thoughts were thinking of the many all day....had to get some of these photos of dad from my brother. My dad served in Korea and was injured by shrapnel hitting his lower back. They thought sure he would be paralyzed, but he was one of the lucky ones. Only in the hospital on his back for a full year. That was before my brothers and I were born. One of mom's three brothers, Willard, lost his life in Korea.

Thank you to all that served, sacrificed, and those serving now.
