About Me

My Photo
Name:
Location: Dallas, TX, United States

When I was a year and 12 days old, I was blessed with the arrival of my twin brothers, Bobby and Eddy. A sister really couldn't have two better brothers, and I am so proud of all they have accomplished in their lives, thus far, including marrying my sisters-in-law, Ann and Christine, respectively. My role model is my mother, who gave up a successful career as a CPA to raise me and my brothers. A mother can give no greater gift to her children then that of her presence. I have many, many cats & dogs! I am a Sooner(www.ou.edu)! I graduated in 1999.

From Those Of Us You Never Knew, Thank You For All You Gave To Us

Today, Monday, May 29, 2006, is Memorial Day. I would like to take the time to thank the families of all of our fallen heroes. You and they made the ultimate sacrifice so we might be free. They never knew me, or I them, but they died for my freedom and for the freedom of every American citizen.

I have visited Normandy. I have seen what remains of the horrors of Dachau. I will never be able to understand what the soldiers experienced, but I do know this; they were brave and the true embodiment of what it means to be an American. Their deaths were not in vain. And I will not forget them, nor will I ever stop thanking them for their courage and for their sacrifice.
