Our debt to the Heroic men and Valiant women in the service of our country can never be repaid . They have earned our undying gratitude. America will never forget their sacrifices
(President Harry S. Truman)

During these days of many trials and tribulations that our land of the free are facing, let us remember to hold our heads up high in remembrance for those who gave thier life for our freedom and those that are still in harms way for this cause. Pray for the brokenhearted and proclaim victory for those who are held captive. Lord, You are the light of the world and we declare You to be Lord over every nation. We know your light shines in darkness and the darkness does not always comprehend, but we also know You light will always prevail. Amen.

It was truly my honor to be a part of this welcome home!!
The PGR unexpectantly and pleasantly was honored to welcome home approximately eight soldiers.
Several of whom were only home on leave.

Mary Utley, Chris Lehman, and the family are wonderful people.
I had the honor of meeting Chris personally. He is a very polite young man who obviously loves and missed his children during his deployment.

A thank you goes out to all who came out an attended.

Thanks to Mike for being the support vehicle.
Thanks to the Brothers In Arms for again responding and coming out and showing their support.
Squid, you guys are first class in my book.

Thank you Steave for asking the PGR to be involved in this joyous occasion.

It was a happy occasion for all.

Dianne
