  • REMEMBERING THOSE OF MEMORIAL DAY






                                  


    There are so many of my family and friends who have served in the military, that I can't even begin to name them all, so I shall just say those of my family members: beginning with Dad, Brother Don, Son Shaun & his wife Melissa, and sisters-in-law, my sister's husband Sam, her son Stephen, my father in law, and a couple of brothers in law, and I hope that I'm not missing any ... though I may be, especially if I go back farther in time. I cannot begin to say enough "THANK YOU'S"  to all of them and to all of my friends, and even those whom I don't know, but who have given of themselves. As this next says it so well --

     
    HERE IS A PICTURE OF MY DAD who served as a Pharmacist Mate E-5,a Pharmacist Mate E-5, in the Psych ward in a hospital in Hawaii during WWII.
     

    UPDATE ON MY MOM
    This picture was taken of Mom & my husband Mike on Dec. 25th, 2012.
    We had just arrived at her apartment that afternoon in time for supper.
    It was a total surprise for her, as we hadn't told her that we were coming
    from Ohio to Illinois to visit her for a few days. happy

    Thank you for your kind words, for your thoughts,

    and prayers for my Mom. She is slowly improving,
    and has times of real discouragement. She really
    appreciates that my friends care and are praying for her. 
    My back is still giving me pain & some mobility  problems,
    so I still cannotmake a long trip to Illinois. However, I only have a week or two left of school responsibilities, and then
    I am hoping that I will be healed enough to be able
    to make the trip to Illinois to see Mom.
    I told her that I would share the words from each of you:  Brenda, Carolyn, Frank, Gracia, Izakura, Linda, MaeMichelMiriam, and Zakiah.

    Jesus  gave  His  all !
