Heartfelt Thank You........words are not enough.



Sacramento Valley National Cemetery
 Dixon, California



  Dr. James Curtis Orr, my dad, who served as an Army Captain.

Mark Emory Chamberlain, my dear friend Deborah's husband, is also buried here, 
just several yards away. The Chamberlain family has been dedicated to service.


Family visit to the White House with Dad, Mom and Heidi (my little sis!) circa 1971.


Our thanks go out to the 3 generations of  family~Dean Lindstroms, and Patrick, for representing. Our thoughts and prayers remain with our "Deano", soon to be deployed overseas 
(pictured with his family above).


.........to our brave Veterans. Your service is appreciated more than I can say.

Touching post on Garrett Cross by his mother, Valerie.


This will melt your heart.....my nephew Beck Henry Swanson with a poem for Veterans Day.


Cheers to you who have served and are currently serving our country....
and thank you!

What a beautiful post. My father and father in law were both Army 'lifers' and the military has always seemed like family to me. Its always good to hear how much our servicemen and women are appreciated.
