A little close to home...

This evening I was informed of the death of an American Soldier a little too close to home...

Sam Pearson

He was the son of my mom's co-worker. They worked together for over 30 years, and my mom has pretty much watched him grow up...

Luckily, I do not know many people who have gone over to Iraq, and haven't even experienced much death at all of family or friends... so when someone I know of has passed away, it hits home...

Please pray for the Pearson family as they grieve the loss of their brave son.

America is home of the free BECAUSE of the brave.
