Just a Thought

Yesterday, I set back and remembered. I thought of a man born on January 26 many years ago. That man meant a lot to me, we worked together on many projects. I loved him and what’s more I liked him. He was a great influence to me in my teen years. I hold many of his lessons with me today. His body died a few years ago, but I remember him always. His name was John (Jack) E. Williams. I miss him and always will, but I remember the good times and feel better.

I also remember a lady I never met. A woman who raised a son to be a good and honest man, who stands tall among others with he head held high. She raised that son to know the value of life, family and country. I miss the opportunity of meeting her before she passed last year, but I remember her and thank her for my son in law. Pam Silny.

January 26 is a day the world views as a day of giving and of passing. A day filled with great and the not so great. These are two of the great; though not known by the world. The few people who did know them are blessed; those who did not know them have a hole they know nothing about.
