What a fine sharing of memories, ideals and sentiments. There will come a day when your daughters will treasure it far more, even, than is possible for them now. And from there, on to succeeding descendants.
This is wonderful, Terry. So glad you wrote it and shared it on your blog. You're a wonderful big brother, and I have always been so proud of you.
You unmitigated old fool and chamption sinner, you! I can't speak for Saint Peter, but until he has his opportunity to comment, I'll chime in with my sentiment on that "load of love" you show to those of us blessed to share parts of your life! I am thankful that some of that love shines on me!
If someone is carring for your family,your friends and your country..how could they be supporting OBAMA.
Someone has to go back to school and study HISTORY and this time read the books.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading your thoughts and well-spoken words. Thanks for writing down your memories for us to read!
Thanks, SW, Carol, and Joan. I always get a little carried away with these things.
And thanks for stopping by, Frederick. Yes, I am a dedicated supporter of Barack Obama. I certainly find no inconsistency in my support of Obama and my care for family, friends, and Americas. In fact it is precisely because of my deep love of country that I came to support Barack Obama in the first place. I am inspired by his vision for our country. Although I also find much to admire about his opponent, John McCain's positions are often diametrically opposed to my own. He has declared that he will appoint more far-right judges, will continue the failed economic policies of Bush, and is willing to contemplate an indefinite commitment of blood and money to the war in Iraq.
If you'd like to know more of my reasons for supporting this good man, please read more of my posts. In the sidebar you will find a link to my very first post which outlines some of my basic beliefs that I think fit very well with those of Barack Obama.
Even though you and I have, evidently, very different views, I will welcome any polite discussion of the issues.
Thanks, Lyn!
Terry, I loved reading your answers to these questions. Some of your answers brought tears to my eyes.
You have always been a very kind cousin to an annoying younger cousin. We may not agree politically but I love you and appreciate your devotion to God, your family and your community.
