Remembering...

Today is the anniversary of two very significant events...9/11 and hurricane Ike.

9/11

To those who lost and risked their lives on that day...thank you for defending our freedom.

To those who lost someone that day...my heart still hurts for you

For those defending our freedom (and spouses of those defending our freedom) ...you are the definition of a hero. Thank you.

Ike...

For my friends, family and strangers who lost thier homes, businesses and lives...we still think of you and hurt for you lost.

For those who have come back and rebuilt their lives here...you make the county proud.

To Tilman...thank goodness you see Galveston county as being worthy your money!

The events that changed the lives of so many...I hope that I never forget the love and compassion we all felt during these times.
