My deepest sympathies to the family and friends of SPC Miller.
Unfortunately, this is both my hubby and my first day back at work after vacation, so we will not be able to attend if it's on the 10th, but we will be with you in spirit. |

Standing by in sadness in Minneapolis.
Like everyone else, there are missions I can make and missions I can't. If it's on Monday, I'll be there -- if the day moves there are some times that week I can't make. I have assurance the bike will be out of the shop by then.
Condolences to the Miller family. |
