I have some sad news to pass along and I am hoping that you will help me with this.
A special Vietnam Veteran that I have known since I became involved with our Veterans, lost his son, Spc. Brandon Titus, in Iraq on August 17th. There is a special tribute page that I would like you to sign to show that you care too!! If you would, please sign this tribute and then pass it on to your lists and email and anywhere else that you can send it!!
I was at Paul Revere and the Raiders show in Wheeling, WV on Thursday, August 19th, and Paul Revere dedicated the show to Brandon.....it was an honor to be there. Spc. Titus will be honored by being the first Veteran to be buried in the Idaho State Veterans Cemetery before the Cemetery is officially opened. Thanks so much for posting a message, I know that it will mean alot to his family.
To Ghost and his family....you are in my thoughts and prayers and if there was any way that I could be there for you and with you, I would!

"To defeat this terrorism, we must rally behind our
President, our military, our country and each other.
We must stand as one, to prove to the world that
we will not be controlled by fear. The politics of
this country cannot be divided any longer."
Nikki-September 16, 2001

"There will never be a judge or jury, president
or politician that will ever tell me I can't stand
up in public, place my right hand over my heart and
say 'One Nation Under God.' Every Veteran who ever
fought or died for this country has given me the
right to do this and no one will ever take that
right away from me."
Nikki-September 8, 2002

"There are five reasons why we live in a free
country and they are, the Air Force, the Army, the
Coast Guard, the Marines and the Navy. Because of
them, I am one proud American"
Nikki-September 18, 2002

God Speed to our fallen soldiers. Please click the link, it's not spam, you'll love it.


The Mansions of the Lord

To fallen soldiers let us sing
where no rockets fly nor bullets wing
Our broken brothers let us bring
to the mansions of the Lord

No more bleeding no more fight
No prayers pleading through the night
just divine embrace, eternal light
in the mansions of the Lord

Where no mothers cry and no children weep
We will stand and guard to the angels sleep
All through the ages safely keep
the mansions of the Lord

Dear Nikki, there is a reason for your loss. We can't know, it's God's will. One day, you'll know. This could be my kid. God speed. It helps to play the music I linked, it really, really does.

Words fail me at times like this. God speed Brandon. Please, know that even though we have never met, I will miss you, your Country will miss you and that I will never forget your sacrifice.

Tom, I too share in your passion and if it wasn't for the distance, I would be proud to show up on my Road King. In his memory, on August 30, I will ride alone, flag at half staff and pegs down. God Bless you brother and may God give your family strength during these difficult times.

Gator

America gives up one of its best. Heaven gains another Guardian Angel.

I read through the messages from Brandon's friends and neighbors. This young man was everything an American is supposed to be -- and everything a soldier hopes to be.
