MN PGR:
We have been invited by the family of Paul Johnson-Reubens to honor him for his service to our country.
Paul was a contractor working in Iraq and was killed this past year. He was also a LCPL in the Marines and a police officer in the state on Minnesota.
Memorial: Wednesday April 9th from 4-8pm
Peterson Funeral Home
119 Central Ave
Buffalo, MN 55313
Staging will be at the funeral home at 3pm. Park along the side streets around the funeral home please.
Funeral Service: Thursday April 10th at 11:00am
Buffalo Covenant Church
1601 Hwy 25 N
Buffalo, MN 55313
Staging will be at The Buffalo Target on Hwy 55 at 10am... we will try to carpool from there as I expect parking to be at a premium at the church. Weather is going to be marginal for biking.
Internment will be at Ft Snelling National Cemetary following the service.
Respectfully
--

Another Mother asked President W. Wilson, "Why did my Child have to die on the battlefield of France ?" Yet another Mother asked President Lincoln,"Why did my Child have to die at Gettysburg ?" And yet another Mother asked President G.Washington, "Why did my Child have to die near Valley Forge?" Long, long ago a Mother (Mary) asked, "Heavenly Father, why did my Child have to die on a cross outside Jerusalim?" All the answers are so near the same.

I Remember You
When I walk into my church,
free and without fear,
I remember you.
When I see children playing in the school yard,
girls and boys of all kinds,
I remember you.
When I see families working together,
regardless of religion or nationality,
I remember you.
When I go to sleep
without worry for my family's safety,
I remember you.
When I see our flag waving in front of my home,
and when I can salute that flag without fear of
reprisal,
I remember you.
When I remember you,
I think of the sacrifices you made so I could
have these things.
I think of your commitment and your service
beyond mere duty.
I think of all that you have given
so that I and those whom I love can be free.
When I pray at night and give thanks
for the blessings God has given,
I remember you.
