Remember our deceased, retired and active duty Veterans every day but especially on Memorial Day. I am proud of the family Veteran's - my Daddy, both my Grandmother's, 3 uncles and my Husband for serving the USA.

Very nice Shirlene! I come from a family who served as well. My Dad was a tailgunner on the B17's, Both my brothers and brother in law were in the Navy, My Maurice is retired Airforce. I had uncles in the Navy and Army. My ex was Navy and his Dad was a pOW in WW2.I have One great niece in the army, a great niece in the Guard, A nephew in the guard and I'm hoping I haven't forgotten anyone. Both Granddad's were in the service as well. Memorial Day is a special day but I like to honor the vets every day.

Your family is wonderful and it is so good that you have pics! I guess I need to go to FB and see if anyone in my family has posted pics. Blessings. Live Laugh Download Stitch!

thanks Christine - I have more pictures on Facebook than here - good idea to check in with the family from time to time.

Thank you for your well wishes and pictures of your family!
I was in the Navy for just shy of 5 years. Had I not married, I think I would have retired there.
I joined in "73, near the end of Vietnam. (May '96),
honorably d/c in '78.
Hugs, B
