Arkansas

On May 27th Lonnie, Kayleigh and myself flew to Arkansas to lay my dad to rest. It had been years since I was back home and it was bitter sweet why we were there. I was so happy to see my family, but it was a hard day for me also. We flew into Tusla OK. and drove to Fayetteville.  My cousins were there and my Aunt, Uncle, and Cousin flew in from Texas to be there also. Lonnie had arranged for the Arkansas National Guard to be there and they did a 16 gun salute which was wonderful. I also was presented a folded flag. Kayleigh took all the pictures and did a great job. Oh,and Lonnie dug my fathers grave. Dig a grave... check.
