Let's all take sometime this weekend to reflect on loveones that are no longer with us. Let's also think about all the fallen hero's that paid to ultimate price to allow us to be free. Also, pay respect to our soldiers all over the world. This is the greatest country on earth! Alot of us are going thru tuff times. Let's reflect on all of our blessings. Try to find something that will help someone out. In most cases it really isn't much. Have a safe and happy Memorial day. To the soldiers serving our country THANK YOU! Pearl02.
 
It's great to know some of you guys who have and are currently serving our country. When I was a younger man I contemplating going that direction. I had a chance to go into the ROTC program. At that time (In the early 80's) some of the incentive programs was starting to be offered. It sounded very cool. I also looked into joining the Marine Corp. My life took me in a different direction. I also was a good athlete. I recieved a letter from the university of Kansas to play football and also a letter from Arkansas to run track. I also got some letters from other colleges. One of the letters was from a small college in Kansas. For some reason I had a good feeling about that letter more so than the others. I took one visit and decided to attend school there. I'm very glad that I did. Sometimes you just get a good feeling about things and decide to go with it. I'm honored to know all my Stang brothers but especially the guys who serve/served our country.
