Uncle I never knew

RIP Uncle Peter. I never met you. But my mother Marion told us about you as a children. She even worked hard and allowed me to visit D.C. to see the memorial and get a scrubbing of your name. She's resting now with MA, Aunt Shay, Uncle Sammie, and Uncle Phillip. But I still have your shadow box with your Medals of honor. Though, we never met, I am honored to be able to know that you gave your life doe this country. That alone gives me the motivation to do great things. Being honorable is in our blood. Thanks for your service. Rest well....

we will remember them.....

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.
