Lost a friend in Iraq today
I started to respond to each of you, but Wow, I'm overwhelmed by everyone's responses! Thank you all for the prayers, kind words and support. This OH family is truly a blessing in my life.
Yesterday was rough. I cried myself through the Easter sunrise service...who cries on Easter? But the pastor kept talking about death being obsolete since Jesus has risen. I'm crying now just typing that out! I know the meaning behind it, and I believe it, but death sure doesn't feel obsolete to us right now. :( We found out yesterday that he was actually in Afghanistan, not Iraq. Not that it makes a difference, but I still wanted to pass on the actual facts.

I spent four years in the Marines, my hubby is a active duty Marine here in Jacksonville at Marine Corps Air Station, New River. With Camp Lejeune five miles from New River we are nothing BUT a military town. Lots of my neighbors are deployed and hubby was deployed last year. I am so sorry for your loss and I will be so happy the day all the men and woman who serve our country can come home in peace. I hope Kristy will be ok and that her new baby will bring her some joy in her life.
hugs,
