Dear Tami, I am afraid it comes to all of us! On Sunday we lost my Uncle Franks wife, but that is the way things go. Ours is not to reason why, ours is but to do and die, as the saying goes.
I go by this, as we lost a lot of people in the military.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun, and in the morning,
we will remember them.
That Tami sums it up for me, apart from this to my fallen comrades where I was.
When you go home today, tell them of us and say
for your tomorrows, we gave our today.
Neil
