ReplyDeleteMay your soul rest in perfect peace and may God grant the ones you left behind the fortitude to bear the loss. I know your soul is priceless as is those of other veterans but I hope the government has a very significant compensation in place for the families of our departed veterans otherwise it's a shame! I love your faith in God and I know your prayers are being answered even when you are here no more. I held my breathe for 20 seconds in honour of you.
ReplyDeleteMay his soul rest in peace. Amen.we love you so much
