My Mothers teenage love

Thank you for making the ultimate sacrifice for your country. My mother dated you and you guys were engaged when you were teenagers. I am also named Eric but without the k after you. She didn’t want to put the K in my name cause she didn’t want something to happen to me to. Well she passed away in 2019 and I’m sure you both are in heaven having a blast till we all meet again. Take care of my mom for me
