Calling All Rodders,
Tonight was the last night that the traveling memorial wall was in Erie. Rex and I took the time to go to the First Assembly of God church parking lot on Oliver Road to see this display. Words can NOT explain the feeling of standing before that wall. We go about our busy lives and sometimes forget how lucky we are to live in a country that is protected by these great men and women. The ones that chose to give their life to keep us free and those that were called to duty and chose to defend our country and people. We all seem to have an opinion on how things should be run but these people did more than just talk about it. They gave the ultimate sacrifice and we need to never forget!
We need to THANK those people who gave their lives, We need to THANK those families who have lost a loved ones for the good of our country. And we need to THANK those men and women who put them selves in harms way everyday for US! No matter was race what religion what working class these people come from they come together for a cause and that is for you and I to live in a country where we can voice our opinion, complain about our government, and get an education if we want one, work where we want, simple put make choices and live safely all the things we take for granted! These men and women believe it is your right to these things and fight to keep those things and many more.
Stop and pause right now and remember why we have these rights and how many lives over the years all through history have been lost to ensure that our sons and daughters get those same rights and hopefully a better live because of the sacrifices of our service men and women! God Bless America! We are Proud to be Americans!

I couldn't have said it any better and I thank and pray everyday that our son who is serving his country right now realizes what honor he is giving to his country.
