I was at this ceremony in Trenton...a picture cannot really convey
the grief experienced

there are not enough words to truly express the thanks warranted for the
sacrifices of the fallen and wounded (and their families) this past century

You were present at the site in Trenton where these young soldiers were being carried off of the plane? I can't imagine a more heartbreaking thing to witness.

Last Friday, a young man from my home town was killed in Afghanistan. This morning, the funeral procession rode past my home and throughout the day, I kept thinking about the agony his poor family must be going through.

Were you just visiting the site out of respect for these fallen heroes or were you in the unenviable position of having to take a friend or family member to their final resting place?

By the way, you play the piano beautifully.
