honoring you...
A butterfly lights beside us like a sunbeam
And for a brief moment its glory
and beauty belong to our world
But then it flies again
And though we wish it could have stayed...
We feel lucky to have seen it.

Courageous
Michael was a neighbor in Calhoun; 9 years older than me. He treated me like a younger brother. I'll never forget-he came home from Vietnam for Christmas and told me I would never see him again. He returned to Vietnam with full knowledge of the great dangers of being a helicopter gunner. His brother was severely wounded in Vietnam. Obviously, great sacrifice from the King family. He will always be missed.
