Standing Up for Freedom
Throughout the history of our great nation, valiant men and women have served with honor to preserve the freedoms we so often take for granted. They sacrificed time, personal interests, comfort, health and often their very lives defending the Home of the Brave. I thank God for each and every one of them!

All Americans
Though we are a nation that includes bigots of every sort, those who protected us are of every color and creed. They are all Americans and we owe a debt of honor to every single one of them.

My Gift of Thanks
This original graphic is my humble tribute to our veterans. The man on the left honors our Hispanic and Native American veterans; the woman brings honor to all the women who served as well as those men and women of Asian descent; honor for our Black service people is brought by the sailor facing forward. This is WWII Hero Dorie Miller. Finally, the man on the right honors Caucasian service people. If I have omitted any race, it is an oversight, for I openly celebrate the diversity God chose to impart to mankind. It is a wondrous and glorious gift!

How thankful I am to be an American!
How I honor all who gave so much to keep this country the Land of the Free!
This page is dedicated to those who gave so much to preserve the freedoms we hold so dear.
I hope you will join me in giving thanks to God for these valiant men and women...
Let us never forget the the price they paid... some even gave their lives!
