Monday, June 9, 2008 | A Sad story

I am back and resting ..........kinda ,the flight was up and back and only had one from Pitt to N.C. that I wasn't particularly fond of. It was a layover and I set on the wing.

The service was nice , the 21 gun salute tore me up and the buglar. There were relatives I never knew. I laid a rose and put a cement placque in front of grave that said my saying "If teardrops could build a stairway etc."  We couldn't stay I have to be back at work tommorrow but I was there long enough, now I have to have his other buriel In Jax, FLorida @ the national cemetary so I have to prepare for that , thats where I get the flag , relatives wanted his mom to have the flag here and I said ok , and God works in different but wonderful ways , the flag did not arrive in time so I didn't have that taken from me!  I was so worried because that is my little piece of the service and him.

 

I am so glad I could go I wouldn't have forgiven myself if I didn't!

 

Love to you all !!  Norma

    Sounds like it was a beautiful ceremony. Glad you did make it. When is the other ceremony in Florida?. It must be hard for you, sending you lots of hugs.... Love, Alice

    It sounds like you are managing well - although it seems to be just one hard thing afer the next, doesn't it? I know I would be a complete mess. I am proud of you for doing so well. I know it is all about the prayers. They matter. God bless.
