They are obviously very special to have raised a son like Matt. You have such a way with words Nancy. I enjoyed reading what you had to say about his family and the picture that you painted with your words about that day. I cannot imagine what that family is going through.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55970807966534094.post-68153949788082931832009-08-21T18:34:24.461-04:002009-08-21T18:34:24.461-04:00What a beautiful tribute...

Matt was a wonderful young man when he was in my Youth group and he always challenged me to explain why and how and so forth, but he wanted to learn and he did. I know he is with his Savior and I pray for peace for his loved ones. <br />God Bless!Millienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55970807966534094.post-60281749685244760102009-08-21T08:52:08.030-04:002009-08-21T08:52:08.030-04:00Beautifully written.Beautifully written.Thenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03080056293865201373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55970807966534094.post-21439289303539132992009-08-21T05:51:06.148-04:002009-08-21T05:51:06.148-04:00"A wonderful read.

My husband served in the Marines for 10 years, through the first Persian Gulf, and I have been crying through each of your posts. I am praying for his family, and I am humbled by the ultimate sacrifice that he gave to this country. PLEASE let us know if there is anything that we can for them. As you said, a military funeral is something that you never forget, nor will his sacrifice be forgotten!"Kellienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55970807966534094.post-89148199452566980232009-08-20T23:14:12.742-04:002009-08-20T23:14:12.742-04:00As does ours!

I was completely overwhelmed with the procession from the airport to the funeral home...I was on hwy 17 near Walmart...and when the family and hearse came by- there was a total silence that fell...hands over hearts, flags held high and tears streaming from faces- all ages, all races...some who knew him- most who did not. So moving... Karen PrevattKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07053531630861176224noreply@blogger.com
