May you see God’s light on the path ahead
When the road you walk is dark.
May you always hear,
Even in your hour of sorrow,
The gentle singing of the lark.
When times are hard may hardness
Never turn your heart to stone,
May you always remember
when the shadows fall –
You do not walk alone.
Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

Your Dad and Husband is an American hero. Its just that simple. He made it a safer place for everyone to be in. Most are afraid to do this job and the others couldn't do this job. Its a calling sent and for those that respond they are the righteous. May God welcome this hero with open arms. My respect always.
