Thank You all for Your Kind Words and Encouragement, this last Few Weeks. My Husband, would have been so Pleased, that others were there for Me, when He was not able to be. He Retired, from AT@T with Thirty Years of Service. He was a Father to Three and a Grandfather to Five. He Served, Two Tours of Duty in Vietnam, 1967 - 1969. He was not Drafted, He Enlisted. He Loved, His Country that much and felt, it was His Duty, to Serve. He came Home a Purple Heart Winner. He will be Buried, at Tennessee Veterans Cemetery, with full Military Honors. God Bless, to all My IHD Friends.             

                                                                                                                                                                                Jo-Ann

They shall grow not old
As we, who are left, grow old.
Age shall not weary them
Nor the years contemn.
At the going down of the sun
And in the morning
We will remember them.

Lest We Forget.

Rest in peace, digger!

Jo-Ann,

I can only say that I hope you have some comfort that Ron is no longer suffering.

He will be with you always in your memories of him and the children and grandchildren that you and he share.

Hugs today and whenever you need them.

Ron, I did not have the honor of knowing you but I would like to thank you for your service to my country and I pray you spend eternity in peace.  I also pray for comfort for your family as they will miss you greatly.

oh Mizar, my hubby would be feeling the same.. Worrying about ME.  You've been blessed in many ways.  Im so sorry for this time in your life, and in all i pray for comfort.  I too thank your husband for his service.  Im a Vietnam age lady, and have family who was there to... But not of their choice.  I give honor to those who willingly went to protect our country.  Bless you and your family, and let them bring you the joy and comfort that hubby wants for you.  With love and compassion, another wife.
