With the exception of the photos of my son, (I Love You Son and I am so proud of you! You are by far my Biggest Hero!) all of the photos in this slide show were sent to me by US Service Members who I had the pleasure of meeting and supporting while they were deployed overseas in Iraq, Afghanistan and Kuwait.
Quit Tobacco—Make Everyone Proud announces a new level of support for U.S. military personnel who are ready to quit tobacco.

Those lost on September 11, 2001... and all those who loved them.
Remembering...
Those that everyday put on a uniform in service of their community... who often go overlooked by those in their communities where they serve and protect. Until, a call goes out... and their services are needed. Thanking them and remembering exactly what they do for us everyday... isn’t something that should only take place once a year. Thanking them upon meeting them in our everyday life is something we should strive to do.
Remembering...
And never forgetting what happened that day... nor the sacrifices made.
The Defiance Fight Gear team has launched a fundraising campaign that will benefit our troops and their families. The campaign is in honor of the fallen, those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in the service of their country. For information on this fundraiser, the causes that will benefit from it, or to support this worthy project, please visit http://www.defiancefightgear.com/Support%20the%20Troops.html.
Many of you, my dear friends, have asked me how JJ is doing. I figured it would be easier just to let you all know this way. I'm caring for him like a sick child nearly 24 hours a day. I don't get much sleep (I'm not complaining) these days so I often forget to get back to you as I have limited computer time as well. It's not that I don't read your messages or think about what wonderful friends God has blessed me with. I truly enjoy hearing from you and love getting messages, comments and emails. I do want you to know that if I don't reply right away I will as soon as I get a chance. I love each of you dearly and thank you so much for everything.
We need many, many prayers for JJ. Prayers were answered for Winston (and continue to be) and without you I don't know if he'd be here with us today.
I have put up a web page on Winston's site for JJ. This will make it easier if you would like to check in on JJ. I will continue to update this page. I invite you to visit it as well as our regular updates page. Here is the link:
Hiya Hiya. . . . Well I have been having troubles with this dinosaur of a computer (trying to leave commits usaully bumps me off, but I keep on trying). I havent moved yet to TN, near Fort Campbell (but will be somewhere in Oct), where I probally will be working with the FRG (where I will be not only supporting troops but also their familys as well). In about two weeks all my stuff will be shipped down there, so I may not have much access to internet (unless I go to a friends house). So bare with me, I am still out here. Hope you have a good day and month, and I will try and check in as much as I can. But for now I am heading to the ledges with my friends this weekend.
