Hi Lizards! Just dropping in for a few…
We buried dad today..God bless his soul.
VFW gave him a 21 guns salute today. I don’t know about you guys but it was my first and those guns were so loud with the volley I almost jumped out of my skin..It was really really loud..I wasn’t expecting it..When the Military guy said a prayer and march over and handed me the American flag..I totally lost it..I was doing so well through the mass and I spoke for about 5 minutes what my dad meant to me…but when he handed me the flag..I just lost it…
It all hit me at once..Then before I left the grave site they gave me the 21 spent shells in a plastic bag…I lost it again…After that it was being with relatives, food and beer…I miss my dad
