Gary,
You know I care a lot,
in fact I am talking to you
now on the phone as I write this...
My prayers will always be for you.

Lots of love and hugs...

Wish I could send you off in royal fashion....

Thank you Brigade, for helping to keep our country safe. Please keep your head down and come home soon.

Sunday and another hot and humid day.............nothing wacky to tell you yet Gary........the day is quiet

as a veteran will just say take care of yourself, I know it is hard three years in korea taught me that. hot and humid with the aromo of rice paddies during the summer, adeep freeze during the winter. again just take care.

thank u one and all it is really nice to see something positive in life from people that r stangere esspecially when everybody so busy with there own lives. for vanessa who i never personally met but in a short time of knowing her she is one person who i can see being in my life for now until the end of time!she is my friend and i have grown to love very much! ty jhs for gathering all of these fine people together which i would have probably never got to meet! bless all of u, and god speed!

Your sacrifices are appreciated, Brigade!

Thank you.

Wow!!!... Gary...Brigade...!!!

... I am so honored that you feel that way...

"Is it you?" ...she asked him...
{like in the movie "Somewhere in Time"}

Are you my fine, courageous Prince,
the Mighty Knight in Silver Armour,
that I have long been waiting for?

I will hold you close in my dreams
& await your safe return forever...

consider yourself.....

Thankyou for all you do for us. You are all in my prayers each day till your safe return.

Sergeant Brigade,

You are a true Hero & our very own beloved "Homeboy..." ;-)
We all love you and admire you & wish you the very best...
Our Dear, Fine Brother & Awesome Buddy....

I feel so fortunate to be counted amongst your friends, so
honored that you would consider me to be someone special to you.

Your words of encouragement
strengthen & lift me up high,
your unconditional love & respect
helps me feel complete, treasured & cherished...

Your powerful words to treacherous predators out there...

Your love & protection that cover me so completely,
In your touching testimony written for me....

Love that surpasses distance & circumstance...
The selfless, all encompassing care & concern you express...

At this time when you could be thinking only of yourself...
You are concerned about everyone else...
your Family, loved ones & your friends...

Your unceasing bravery & dedication to your country
and her people, is humbling & awe-inspiring...

Searching deep within my heart,
Scanning books of poems & quotes,
I reach far & high for the right words to say....
Aside from writing an entire book of praise...

I can barely see the monitor screen...
My eyes are filled with tears...

I just want you to know how much I appreciate you
you have shown me such pure & genuine love...
For this I am forever indebted to you....

What can be said to fully bring this Man praise?
What can be done to show him our thankfulness?

There are no medals that are big or shiny enough,
no prestigious titles fancy enough.
No touching memorial service that would even closely suffice..]

There are no words even slightly adequate...
To express our heartfelt love, respect,
admiration & appreciation for you....



You are not to be an unsung hero, not the unknown soldier.

We want to know you, we want you to know how much we love you, and we want you to carry our love within you strong & proud, where-ever you may go...

Like I said in my testimony to you...
You are a Fortress of courage,
a Pillar of incomparable strength,
A White Knight of the highest order,
A Mighty Warrior of goodness & peace,
A Brave Soldier of righteousness...
May you live long and strong

In the silences of our souls,
we send up prayers for you...
May our love hold you close
May our prayers help cover you .

May our Heavenly Father keep you protected always,
May you accompish whatever you set out to do,
May you come home safely, soon and for good...
And may you always know how very much you are loved ...





I will try to be strong, but I can't guarantee it...
I just wish you were in my arms right now...I miss you.
I would love to love you....Take care my beloved Brigade.

To Brigade, and his solidiers

Another MOnday passing here, less humidity........and I am glad that I can come on here after a day at work, and say hi to you all...........and a special thank you to all that are posting............we will get this group through the next 15 months with the postings.....have a great day all........

I would like to thank you Snuggles
for posting this sweet thread...

To all of you who have posted
such sweet messages...
Thanks so much ...

I want to keep this thread alive
and encourage everyone to reply

Since we can't throw him a big bash,
no booze, no bud, no booty...
the rules of the "politically correct"
started by the stupid & snooty...
should be put in a pile of rejects
and taken out with the trash...

The day of his departure is drawing nigh,
so won't you please help lift his spirits high?

Happy Tuesday to those reading this. Keeping all of you in my heart and prayers. Stay strong!!!

Your welcome Rapunzel, I started this hoping that we can get people to post daily thoughts about daily life, to help keep their spirits up.........and just think of all the ones who are over there who will come back and join JSH and say great place to meet people, make friends and if your lucky find that special one..........so todays thought from me will be


woohooo its hump day.......have a great one everyone

Greetings on this humid Wednesday morning in the south. Teachers started back to school yesterday. Oh boy!!! I am looking forward to Monday. That's when the children come back and I have missed them terribly. Those of you with children, please know that their teachers are doing everything they can to bring comfort to them while you are away. I will be saying a prayer especially for all of you during mass today. Hope you have a super day. Thanks again for what you are doing.
