US Marine

My nephew Josh is a United States Marine and his unit is being deployed to Iraq today. We are so proud of him and all the others who are so willingly serving our country. I have always had an appreciation for those who sacrifice so much for the cause of freedom but things are sure a whole lot different when you have a loved one who is being directly impacted by the war. The cause of freedom has always come at such a great price and Josh we want you to know that we miss and love you and that you are always in our thought and prayers!


God bless our troops!

Josh is old enough to be in the marines? Weird. I still think of all your nieces and nephews as toddlers.
That is an amazing thing he is doing. I will be thinking of him and your family!
