I'm so sorry that you had lost your father at such a young age. Sounds like it is still as if it was yesterday to you. I saw the pictures above and it touched my heart also, even though I didn't lose a loved one who served...and I pray I never have to. Blessings to you!!! May you have a blessed Memeorial Day!cairncottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10205290020671696920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-531909281927126909.post-8008336239849005052013-05-23T10:25:28.702-07:002013-05-23T10:25:28.702-07:00Dearest Ann, I cannot thank you enough for coming ...Dearest Ann, I cannot thank you enough for coming by "Being Woven" for your visit brought me here today. This has brought tears throughout but each one was caught by our God. I will be writing of Memorial Day in the next day or two as it means so very much to me...for I lost my Daddy in 1960 while he was an active duty Navy doctor. No, he was not in a warzone, but he had been in WWII and then with the Manhattan Project after the war. Most likely his pancreatic cancer at age 46 came from exposure to radiation in his experience with the Manhattan Project. He was proud in his service to this country no matter what the Navy sent him to do, and I am so proud of him to this day. 53 years later, I miss him alot. I was only 12 with sisters of 10 and 7. Mama had her hands full. The photo of the young woman at the gravesite with her little blond son brought major tears. So many have been lost and those children will NEVER really know their Daddy or their Mommy. <br />Thank you for sharing all of this through prayer and through God's sifting of your words, Ann. It is beautiful. Being blessed to see your "Lake Eagle" blesses me. A magnificent bird and one I am glad this nation has chosen to represent it. This nation needs the strength of God underpinning all we do and say and not just on an eagle's handsome and strong countenance. <br />May He hold us each and all as we stand strong in the Lord each day. <br />Caring through Christ, ~ lindaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
