honoring you...

War drew us from our homeland
In the sunlit springtime of our youth.
Those who did not come back alive remain
in perpetual springtime -- forever young --
And a part of them is with us always.

When you died my world was torn apart.

I will never forget the day the Sergeant pulled into our drive way. It was the saddest day of my life . I was only 13 and it was so hard to understand, how could it be?. I beg the Lord to please let you find your way back home. But day after day as years went by I had to face reality, you were not coming home . In fact you were home in Heaven with our Heavenly Father. One day I will see you again and be able to sit down and share so much with you. I love you and I finally understand why you voulterteer to serve for our country . But I will never understand the reason you died over stupidity.
