Spend our time going to
Over there is the Washington
State Veteran’s Cemetery.
We went with the widow of a
good and dear friend.
She had one of her other
friends join us. Rules are only 4 people can be there.
We laid to rest John
Ivy… short and sweet if you want to
call it that. There was Taps played… then the unfolding
of the flag and then the folding of the flag… Salute and given to the
the widow.. So sad in this day and age, as I remember
military
Funerals in the past… For one there was a 21 gun salute shot off.
We were proud to be there to
say the last good byes for this Vetnam Vet.
Not just any one, but a man who was very proud
to be a vet.. He served as many
did… with great honor.
Came home to a country who
could have cared less… Yet he held his head up high. He was an honorable man, and compassion man
and loved by all that met him.
