This picture is of my Aunt Anne O'Hearn,
My father's sister.
I had two Aunts who were in the Army, 3 uncles in the army and my brother Joe was in the Navy.
On the left is a friend of my brother Joe's who was a neighbor when we were growing up and they joined the Navy the same year, Tommy Sayles. At this reunion pictured, Tom still fits into his uniform! My hubby, long before I ever knew him, also went to grade school with Tommy. And he is still a friend and very proud of his country.
Who are your hero's? Praying for all this 4th of July as we celebrate our country's independence. When I was a little girl it was called Independence Day. There was always a huge parade in our hometown and the Mayor would speak at the end in front of Fort Hill Cemetery in Auburn, NY. I loved the brass band and the celebration.
Have a wonderful and safe 4th of July!
My heart to yours...
