Anyone who knows me or has even read this blog
much, knows that I am fascinated by cemeteries. I love walking through them,
reading the different headstones and imagining who these people were, how did
they die, how had they lived.
It
wasn’t any different on our trip to Illinois in April.
Until
we got to this cemetery.
I
couldn’t get out of the car to walk among these headstones. It was much too
somber. I would feel like I was disrespecting all these men and women, invading
their lives. Their lives had already been invaded enough during their years of
service.
Maybe
a little late, but yet another tribute to Memorial Day.
