Thank God for...
Thank God for Lyndon on this Memorial Day, and others like him who paid the ultimate price in Armed Service.
I never met Lyndon... he was Josh's brother's best friend; and our paths just never happened to cross when I visited California. He joined the Army after high school; and died in Iraq shortly after his 21st birthday. While Josh was there, he happened to find out that Lyndon died not far from the base where Josh was stationed, and that was hard for him.
Eventually, people forget specific individuals who paid such a price; so I have resolved not to forget Lyndon.
Don't forget blood shed for you.
