I have not posted in awhile, I have been with my father during his struggle with his health. I am sorry to say he lost that battle Friday. I know he is in a better place but struggle with that reality. Today is the funeral and I am unable to sleep, hopefully the rain will hold off. He is having a military service, the flag will be handed to me....to ME. I have been at services and watched some on TV when others are handed the flag, I just never thought I would be that someone. I do have a great family who are here with me......

Beverly - sending you lots of love & prayers today!
I too received my father's flag and as difficult as it was on the day of his funeral - it is proudly displayed in my home and has since brought me great comfort, pride and loving reminders of him.
I wish the same experience for you!
May God provide you with great Love & Comfort during this emotionally difficult time!
love,
Doreen
How wonderful Bev that the flag was passed to you. There is always a reason for these moments in life, and one day they will be explained in full...what an honor.
GOD loves you and your wonderful family.
Bev,
I am so sorry for the loss of your father. What an honorable man he was. I wish I could be there for you now.
Sending loving warm embraces to you and your family.
Bev,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss and I am sorry I have been absent to console you.
I know your heart is heavy with grief. I wish I could truly give you a hug.
Miss you

So sorry to hear your father past away. It is a very hard thing to endure. What a great honor to receive the flag. Men like your father and mine are a very rare breed and we need more of them today. They served our country well. My prayers and thoughts will be with you. God bless. Cathy
