Sorrow and Joy.. Man this summer well actually last half of 08 and all of 09 have been a total bummer for me.. I really have quit reading, and since I never posted A lot in the first place can not add that to the list.. But anyways my husband of 33 has lost his fight to cancer.. Not asking for anything (well maybe prayers)but this week on one of the yahoo groups someone posted this I finally got around to watching it.. And through the tears .. I was uplifted.. So I thought that I would pass it on.. and maybe someone can see through sorrow (cause this is sad) that there is people who care.
As an explanation, this is what the yahoo message stated ..............
This is well worth the time to watch it......if it does not move
you......well?

downhill fast, watching this just might bring tears to your eyes, but it
just might restore your hope for our future. There is a silent majority of
true patriots out there,and we won't give up on our freedom. God bless the
families of those who gave all, and God bless America .

Beale was returned to Falcon Field in Peachtree City , Georgia , just south
of Atlanta , on June 11, 2009. The Henry County Police Department escorted
the procession to the funeral home in McDonough , Georgia . A simple notice
in local papers indicated the road route to be taken and the approximate
time. Nowadays one can be led to believe that America no longer respects
honor and no longer honors sacrifice. Be it known that there are many places
in this land where people still recognize the courage and impact of total
self-sacrifice. Georgia remains one of those graceful places. The link below
is a short travelogue of that day's remarkable and painful journey. But
watch this only if you wish to have some of your faith in people restored.
