I love living in a small town...


Today a fallen soldier hero was burried.


The streets are lined with yellow ribbons and flags at half mast.


Today I watched a man pullover his car, get out, and hold his hand over his heart as the funeral procession went by.


I watched a town, my town, rally around a family. Some know the family, some do not. But we ALL felt the loss.


The loss of a true hero.


Someone who gave their life, fighting for our freedom.


Our Loss, Heaven's Gain.
