Memorial Day

>> Monday, May 26, 2008








This Memorial Day I want to pay tribute to Uncle Frederick, 83, who passed away yesterday around 10 a.m.







He was a veteran of seven years in the United States Army, serving in Germany in World War II, where he was decorated with two battle stars.

He then served in the United States Air Force, serving two tours of duty in Vietnam.

And Thank You to all the men and women who have served, and are serving our country and defending our freedoms.

Where did you get your pictures? Family heirlooms maybe?
