365Caws is now in its 16th year of publication. If I am unable to post daily, I hope readers who love the natural world and fiberarts will seize those days to read the older material. Remember that this has been my journey as well, so you may find errors in my identifications of plants. I have tried to correct them as I discover them. Likewise, I have refined fiberarts techniques and have adjusted recipes, so search by tags to find the most current information. And thank you for following me!

In Memory Of Daddy

Four years as a prisoner of war. That is true heroism. Serving his country and ultimately giving his life as a result of his service - he's the kind of man I've been telling my children about. The reason we observe Memorial Day, and the reason we have the freedom and pleasures we have. I am so thankful for your father and the other heroes who have continued to keep our freedom secure. If I could, I would lay peonies on his grave also.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Elli. I was only nine when he died. The hole in my life very nearly swallowed me. No child should have to grow up without both parents, and no person should make war on another.
