I have chosen to keep these dedication pages
as a part of my site indefinitely out of respect and honor and remembrance
of the victims, survivors and families of the evil act upon America
on September 11, 2001 ...and for the people of America ...as we
mourn this terrible act of terrorism against us and the inevitable
changes we will all suffer from it.
Our thoughts and prayers are with America.
GodBlessAmerica.org assigned plaques to interested site and as
such I received Commander Dan F. Shanower who was at the Pentagon
on September 11th, 2001. Even though they are no longer
active, my plaque remains.

Commander Dan F. Shanower
The military loses scores of personnel every year in training
or operational accidents. Each one risked and lost his or her
life for something they believed in, leaving behind friends, family,
and shipmates to bear the burden and celebrate their devotion
to our country. ...Commander Dan F. Shanower

A very sweet lady named PAWS, who is on a stationery list
with me, made this for me. After the events on September
11th, 2001, my son, Jarrod, re-upped, as they say, for 6 more
years of Navy service. As such, he will be deploying sometime
in the near future aboard the USS Kennedy to do his part. I
am extremely proud of him and his dedication to family and country...
although as a mother I have my fears as well.
May God bless ALL who serve and protect.
