Our family’s veterans include great-grand fathers, my grandfather, great uncles, uncles, cousins, Bob’s brother and sister, my Dad, my father in law and my husband, Bob. All served their country in war and peace.
And, today especially, we remember my beloved niece and her husband whose brother, Lance Corporal Phillip Vinnedge, was killed in Afghanistan in 2010.
I leave flowers for them all.

Oh, how sad, the loss of that young man. And how lovely, the service of the men in your family, to your country. What a gorgeous garden you have, my friend.
