My Dad’s final resting place. Long Island, NY

Too all solders fallen, and to all of the great American Veterans, I salute you. My dad, a world war 2 Veteran, just passed away this past March 29th 2014. He was a Navy Torpedo Man on several Destroyer Escorts, in both theaters of War. I salute you Dad on this Memorial Day. The world is undeserving of you and all your comrades.
The United States owes all of you a debt of gratitude. I know you are in heaven with all your old war buddies. Say hello to George Washington for me. I’m sure Mr Washington appreciates that you both have the same first name. Last but not least, my heart goes out to all the loved ones who lost their Dad, brother, son in combat. I thank you for your Mammoth sacrifice, we cannot bring them back, yet we can honor them with our hearts forever more.

People who know me would say I'm a political junkie. Some say I should run for office. They would be right about the first part, the later however, well let's just put it this way, I'd rather study them than be studied, lol. When I'm not voicing my opinion, I love computers, web surfing, stamps, coins, gardening, reading, and the english language.
My wife has put up with me for more than 23 years, I love sitting on our porch with her, overlooking our paradise on water, during the warmer months. We are both spring babies, our favorite time of year is watching our trees and plants wake up and then go through their cycle. My illustration here of who I am depicts, or at least I hope depicts that I'm not just about politics. My heart belongs to God, my wife and my country. I am a warm blooded male American P8triat, who loves his country, his life, being an American, and all the benifits that America has to offer, especially the first Amendment.
