My frends, I so wanted to be with all of you but my fathers health has been bad and really felt that i couldnt leave. this wasent in concrete untill tues morning when my sister died. The moving wall is at Royal Center, In this weekend and for those of you that have never seen the real wall you should go to see this if it gets close to you. i hve never been able to walk away without a tear in my eyes. We just dont realize how lucky we are to be alive. These people cant and must never be forgotten as they gave all for what was the most unpopular job in the world at the time. So many still can't do things that so many of us take for granted as they are permanetly scared thru mental and physical pain. I thank the Lord that i and so many of my friends, old and new made it back ok. Yes seeing this wall again is hard. The first time i saw The Wall was in washington with Fred and Emily Sloviko i then and again tonight wept for those that are gone. Tomorrow i will go back and even sunday as i have never seen too much of this memorial. it is about us, it is about freedom. God bless you all.
