Always in my Heart not one day goes by that I don’t think about you Dear Mother. I thank you so much for nurturing me to help me become who I am today, without you I would of been a lost soul today. Your true words of wisdom has given me inspiration with my work my life in general.
Mom I want to thank you for the wonderful 55 years of unconditional
love you gave me it was the most highest honor to be able to call myself your son. As growing
up in Corpus Christi I had only good memories as a child you and Father use to
take us to the beach you and Father would take us on yearly vacations
whether it was a state park an amusement park camping we never had a
dull moment. It was always an adventure with you and Father . I also thank you
for putting me in Artschool which I am still very much active today in the Arts. I really have to thank brother Johnny for his inspiration truly a great Artist. I will always remember when dad once told me look son you do what you want
in life you can even become a garbage man just be the best garbage man you can possibly be! just do what you really want to do in life and do it the best way you can just love what you do and do what you love. Mom I remember the letters you would send me when I was feeling down and often feelings of despair while in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia and eventually Iraq. The words of confidence and with Gods words in your letters gave me a sense of
comfort and confidence that one day I would make it back to see the whole
family again. Mothers instinct to protect their children even when their
long gone and grown up. They never stop looking out for us, even if it was
just a small letter with words of hope. I always found moms words very
powerful indeed it stirred up emotion and hit the heart. The love you had for
me mom was undescribable and certainly unconditional. I am convinced
that one day we will reunite but until we do, we have to continue our
mission here on earth. You are finally free Mother of the pain and suffering you had to endure for so many years
May you find eternal peace along with Father.
The Purple Heart is earned through acts of valor, bravery, courage, and fearlessness. It is awarded to troops that are wounded, killed, who has died, or may have died of wounds received from hostile forces while in armed combat, international terrorism, or being a Prisoner of War. The Purple Heart is the military’s oldest decoration and is held closely to its soldiers and their families. It represents the ultimate sacrifice a soldier can make for our country and the bravery that goes along with it.
