"When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left but could say I've used everything you gave me." ~ Erma Bombeck

Carolina girl in the plains, Army veteran's wife, mama of four, teacher. Lover of God, this country, her veterans, good people's stories, a book, a family tree, and a cup of coffee- preferably with a view of the mountains or beach. John 16:33

I discovered this site years ago while researching family history and loved that it was a unique way to memorialize people and loved ones whose graves we might not be able to personally visit. No one should be forgotten. Over time, it's become a way for me to remember, honor, and pray for my husband's innumerable veteran brothers and sisters and their families who have given so much. Unfortunately, I'll probably never know all their names but a girl can try.

If I somehow ended up managing your loved ones' memorial and you'd like to take over, just send me a message or click on the suggest edits button on their page.
