Memorial Day 2014 --
In Honor and Loving Memory
of all military men and women all over the world who have sacrificed their
lives. Our hearts and prayers go out to each and every person in every part
of the world who has lost a loved one in whatever circumstance. We
sincerely pray for peace, love, tolerance, respect, and understanding of one
another.
In
Loving Memory also -- of our
parents and other family members who have passed on to a better place. I
remember growing up that our Memorial Day weekend tradition every year was
my parents decorating the graves of those family members no longer with us.
Starting in Kansas where we lived, we would drive hundreds of miles to the
various grave sites in Oklahoma and Texas and usually not return home until
very late the night before school the next day. As the years passed, they
continued that tradition every Memorial Day weekend without fail until very close
to the end of their lives. That was so important to them to show honor and
respect to those loved ones, and I want to pay tribute to them for that and
so much more in this small way. |

Happy New Year 2014. May this New Year be one that
is Safe and Happy for all.
This day is also the
Birthday of my
sister
who was a "New Year's" baby
-- we still won't tell what year, but she does have the newspaper from that day
that my parents saved for her and we found a few years ago in an old
suitcase -- the bold headline of the paper says Happy New Year.
"Happy Birthday, P.A.H.!! Hope you have a nice day today." |
