Gunny, I know this has been a heavy heart day.......my thoughts are with you and your family. As we age, the losses seem to make a bigger imprint on our lives, and especially if it's one younger that you grew up with!!
I think your "blanket letter" was most appropriate and appreciated...... as you know this family has been with you in spirit and we are all well aware how hard this day has been without trying to write each of us......... Write when you need to scream! We'll all be here for you!

It was a nice military funeral. Mike was in the Navy back in the 60's. Anyway, I wanted to thenk each and every one of you who supported me. I thought about sending thank you nores individually, but they would have become repetetive after awhile, so I thought a blanket thank you would suffice. Ya know, we're all connected in one way or another, but as you get older, and people around you start to die off, it gets a little harder to take. Especiallt when they're your brother or sister, and they're younger than you. First, you're there when they're born, then you're there when they die. Everything starts to come back when family is around, and the memories sometime become overwhelming. In any case, my heat felt thanks goes out to all of you. Semper Fi Gunny
