My sister's best friend married a Marine, after a whirlwind romance, they had a secret wedding 14 years ago. They have a gorgeous little girl, and Leona and Steve were fantastic parents, she's a wee smasher. Last week I attended Steve's funeral. He had been posted to Sangin in Afghanistan. I've never been to a military funeral before, and I wasn't sure what to expect, but they gave him a great send off. There were so many Marines there, and I'm sure there were many more that were unable to attend. He was such a well respected soldier, and obviously highly thought of by everyone he worked with. But first and foremost, he was a husband and father, and irreplaceable in the hearts of his family. I can't imagine the heartache of losing someone so dear, so loved, and so respected by all. May he rest in peace ٠•●♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥●•٠
