To say the least, it meant a lot to everyone. <br /><br />You are a very special individual. You have an incredible warmth that is communicated from your eyes. You also have a great gift in communicating through words. I truly enjoy reading your posts. Your insight is so very helpful for me to understand what your challenges are. In spite of your challenges, I see the gifts that you possess. <br /><br />Also, thank you so very much for taking photos from the event. What a gift that was! As Lea said, it is fun to relive it over and over again.<br /><br />I hope to see you again.<br /><br />Camicamiljrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15786507506582083877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2253580831378394622.post-64877733324415605222010-07-24T18:45:38.933-05:002010-07-24T18:45:38.933-05:00Bob, it was a pleasure to meet you and I'm so ...Bob, it was a pleasure to meet you and I'm so glad you made it out to Iowa.

My husband and I so wanted to make the trip to be there for Kel and Karla (my dear brother-in-law- and amazing sister), but didn't know for certain that the logistics would fall in place. Thankfully, they did. I am from Decorah and am very proud of my little hometown! This event was a true showing of love, loyalty, and compassion! Thank you for taking so many pictures! I love "reliving" the event. I have some I will forward to you after we make it through my husband's retirement ceremony. He has served 26+ years in the United States Navy! If you are ever in Virginia Beach, please look us up!<br />LeaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2253580831378394622.post-63644858122149023092010-07-23T10:28:22.006-05:002010-07-23T10:28:22.006-05:00PENolan,
