Today is National Purple Heart Day and the National Museum of the Marine Corps recognizes Alec’s sacrifice and his fellow Marines. ❤️🇺🇸❤️

Though they are not with us in person, they live in every story shared, every tear shed, and every smile that they inspired.

Always My Hero ❤️

This is Memorial Day

These photos are my son’s homecoming. Not the kind we wanted, but, the kind we got.

That’s my son’s flag draped casket with his friends carrying it. Some childhood friends even
That’s me at the airport when reality hit, and I realized my son was really not coming home the way I wanted.
That’s us, laying Alec to rest, trying to say goodbye to him, when we really didn’t want to live without him.
That’s Alec’s siblings, realizing that their brother , their Hero, was no longer with them.

I post it because I don’t want my son forgotten. So when you light the grill or hit the beach, you will take a moment and remember what was given—and what can’t be returned.

I post it because this is the reality behind the word “freedom”
And because my son, Alec, and every fallen hero deserves to be remembered.

Nobody wants to be a Hero—sometimes it just turns out that way.

Honor them. Say their name. Live a life worthy of their sacrifice.

Marines in California, visiting Alec on this beautiful day! I always feel so grateful and blessed for receiving pictures like this.
Though they are not with us in person, they live in every story shared, every tear shed, and every smile that they inspired.

Alec loved this song. He put it on my phone, before he left, so it would play every single time he would call me.

It’s really hard to believe that 12 years have passed already. There are no words to express how much you are loved and missed.
Some souls leave behind a trail of light that is never forgotten.

No one has greater love than this, to lay down his life for his friends.

Went to lunch with a friend on 4th Street in Huntingburg. Looked up and saw Alec looking down on me. How cool that they put pictures of our Veterans up for all to see. Beside Alec is John Wagner, a very good friend of mine.

Next week, it will be 12 years that Alec was killed. These kiddos remade the picture of them, from when Alec was killed, to now. Top picture, 2-4 years old, bottom picture, 14-16 years old. I can’t help but love this!!

Happy Heavenly Birthday to this big guy!! We celebrate you today Alec!!

Love and miss you!
Grief is very sneaky. A sound. A scent. A song. A smile becomes tears.
