July 5th is a sad day.....
My last living grandfather had really been fighting for his life over the past year or so. His case of Alzheimer's has progressively gotten worse. This man has always been a patriot. He fought in Korea and retired from the millitary afterwards. He served at the VFW every moment he could up untill his sickness took over too badly. I got the call at 2am this morning that he had passed on........
Anytime I think of a holiday that is centered around America or our soldiers he is always the first person I think of. His home is littered with flags and pictures of political meetings. He even met Regan and had pictures of it. The red, white, and blue is all he stood for. *I know he couldnt stand to go on America's birthday and therefore waited till early this morning.
