On Monday I was so upset that I lost my keys to my car and home. I searched everywhere for them. I was very uncomfortable that the keys would get into the wrong hands. On Thursday, I talked to Sue Beson, the Tai Chi instructor at the YMCA, and told her I may join the YMCA again as I love Tai Chi. My membership at the YMCA had expired last year. ...more

When my dad was alive he preached to us to always show our love and respect for each other while we are here. Never let a day go by without them knowing they are loved and cared for.

Thank you for taking the time to read this letter regarding Prisoners of War-Missing in Action Recognition Day. We should honor the men and women who served and sacrificed to keep our America free, and to salute the families of the missing who continue to keep the candle of hope alive today. There are too many of our people who are missing and unaccounted for from the wars which our nation has been involved in, going back as far as World War II. They are our military and civilians who are our mothers, fathers, sons and daughters. A lot of these wars ended a long time ago but we still should pause and remember their sacrifices. I cannot imagine how I would feel if I lost my husband or family member for this length of time, days, months and yes, even decades. They deserve an answer. ...more
