I've read some of his letters he wrote to my grandparents and they are full of questions about crops and cows, and his younger brother and two younger sisters. They are very innocent and sweet. He has passed away now and your post reminded me of him. Thank you and to all those veterans in your family.Southern Comforthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10191024327522060883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3099877799576584609.post-19996368072215160882009-11-12T06:01:14.002-08:002009-11-12T06:01:14.002-08:00Kathy, I picked up right away on your comments reg...Kathy, I picked up right away on your comments regarding instant communication.

I am even more shocked to hear on the news about the killer and why in the world was he not kicked out of the army a long time ago! What a disgrace that such a man was allowed to roam free among the very people he hated, and with a "religious cause " to fuel his actions....I am hoping "political correctness" had nothing to do with this...and am so sad for the victims and their families.<br /><br />A.Joy, that is soooo David! His sense of humor has certainly helped him a lot and he is pretty good at making people laugh in spite of circumstance.I am happy to see a bit more of his humor returning.KathyB.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13076933273610590290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3099877799576584609.post-51071403561938050812009-11-11T14:08:05.942-08:002009-11-11T14:08:05.942-08:00That was a beautiful tribute to your family and to...That was a beautiful tribute to your family and to all of our Veterans!Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15976416338706426809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3099877799576584609.post-39795148668079514792009-11-11T13:48:01.950-08:002009-11-11T13:48:01.950-08:00This post was well done!

Very grateful to have had all of our family members survive the wars and come home. On a lighter note: David also asked as a boy " When soldiers are in the middle of battle what do they do when they have to go the bathroom? Do they yell 'time out?' " =)A.
