It has just struck me, yesterday was a Duck Pond dedication for Ethan's Dad, my nephew, Jamie who was killed in the line of duty Sept 13th, 2013. At the dedication I learned it is Ethan's 10th birthday this coming Sunday (I'm sure I'm correct on the day), would be nice to see how many b-day cards he could get for his day, hope I'm not asking to much. If you can send a card would be best to come to me and i'll surprise him with them on his day.
In 'Him' we trust.
Woof woof Gus an me.

There will be one in the mail tomorrow. God bless..

Edit:

I hope you don't mind but in my family tradition calls for a couple bucks to be tucked into birthday cards. Mom always made us kids bank ours, and we were glad of that when we turned 18 and were allowed to buy a car.

I'll send one, alone with my Dept Patch. Might take a while though.

A card surely will be in post 1st thing tomorrow morning. A nice write up is in your local 'paper: http://www.messengernews.net/ I find it hard to think of a worse tragedy for anyone to need endure -- 'specially your late nephew's wife and children.
I can think of no words to express my feelings re the depth of their loss.

A complete story on Jamie Buenting's more-than-tragic cold-blooded shooting appears in http://carrollspaper.com/Main.asp?SectionID=1&SubSectionID=1&ArticleID=16396 and surely is worth reading.
