Great News!

#1 Postby Dee Bee » Sat Jan 22, 2005 12:29 pm

I just had to share some great news I received via a long-distance call from my sister-in-law in AZ a few moments ago: my nephew Jimmy came home from 6 months in Iraq this morning! He will be home for 24 days! We are all ecstatic and extremely thankful! :D :D :D :D :D

Thanks so much, everyone! Jimmy already knows how strongly the S2K family holds all our servicemen/women in their hearts and prayers. For a 19-year-old who had never been further away from home in AZ than Reno, NV, this young man -- and all our brave armed forces -- is a real life, everyday hero. We hope he has a chance to fly down to our home for some r-and-r in the FL warmth! Again, thanks to all of you for sharing my joy! :P

That is such good news! But am afraid he will not find any warmth here in FL in the next few days due to a cold front coming through tonight.
