Honor Our Vets
For more than 200 years, brave men and women have dedicated and often sacrificied their lives to keep our country free and support the freedoms of others. Please take a moment to honor those whom you know, meet, or hear about. Without their sacrifices, what would your life be like?

It was my privilege to again  be part of the Memorial Day ceremonies at Oakside Cemetery in Zephyrhills , Fl. I want to personally thank everyone who came out to honor our hometown heroes. Their numbers were larger than previous years and their support was without measure.  It was touching to see an older gentleman with his grandchildren looking at some of the graves of our servicemen. And if the photo of the biker reflecting at another grave doesn't touch you..........This page is for some of the photos of Memorial Day 2008 and 2006.

On June 24th, 2005, my brother Josh's good friend was killed in Iraq. If you click on the link below, you can read  a brief  review of this young man's too short life. Marine Cpl. Carlos Pineda is an example of the quality of Americans sacrificing to protect our freedoms and way of life.  Honor the fallen: Marine Cpl.

Ashley,

What was that gust of wind? …. Ashley flying past the Competition.

Congratulations Ashley!

You have made so many people proud of your achievements and I know that this is just the start of many wonderful things to come.

When people hear you they not only know that you have an awesome voice, but they can see and feel the love that comes out of your heart and that is worth more than all the fame in the world.

Thank you for sharing your gift with us.
