Thanks again for the Special visit to my Mom’s (Mary Bolin)home the day of my Dad’s (Velvin Bolin) Funeral (June 7, 2009). The article appeared on the front page of the Mt. Vernon newspaper. If you can share your address I will send you a paper. Everyone here is still talking about your visit. God bless you!!!

Oh my goodness. I had no idea you were in a car wreck! Just goes to show you that God protects this very important and honorable representation of freedom and the man who carries it. God bless you. Thank you for coming to my brother’s funeral. We will never forget the honor that came from your presence with the bell.
