Veteran's Day 2011

Charles is still very busy...
1st Lt. Charles E. Stone - 1943
That daunting "an article must be wrtiten" directive from my Normandy Angels can finally be checked off the list.  An article about my trip to Normandy and the recovery was printed this week in Linden - perfectly timed to commemorate Veteran's Day.  I spoke to G-Bob this morning and she's weepy but so proud.  She was delighted to tell me that her phone has been ringing off the hook with people calling her about the article.  I'm so happy to have been able to do all this for her.  For all of us.  

I'm in DC today and will be able to go to the WWII Memorial on the National Mall and place flowers for Charles.  I'm not surprised that all these little things clicked into place or happened at just the right time.  Charles is patient, dilligent and has a dramatic sense of timing which always surprises me.  He's constantly reminding me how important this journey is, and I remain grateful.
