A Wonderful Soldier Named Lyle B.



I am able to recall the many blessings I have had with this great man.
One of them is to call him a soldier for he served in the Armed Forces so many years ago.
It may be he was listed as serving as a civilian in the Air Force but he does have that distinction of serving nonetheless.
Elated and thrilled am I for knowing this about Lyle B..
He chose the Air Force as his branch of service as I did years ago whereas I failed to be enlisted.
Lyle B. made it through and served his country well.
I am indeed proud to know this great man and to have him as a brother and friend.
On special occasions such as Veterans Day I am able to celebrate it with the knowing of Lyle B. being a part.
Many memories come to the surface in thinking of him and one of the greatest is the time he and his life's partner came to be with my dad and myself.
It is a joy I will long remember and treasure.
Bless you, Lyle B., for the great man you are and was to all.
