A Funeral and 21 gun salute.

May 1. May Day. ( Off track already but....I just realized I didn't do may day baskets this year nor did we receive any hhhmmm) I rode with Mother up to Woodward Iowa for the memorial service of Uncle Ralph. I had always known Uncle Ralph (his name was Junior to me) had been in the military but honestly I know little about family heritage on Mothers side. I learned that he had been wounded during the Battle of the Bulge in WW2. He had been awarded the Purple Heart and the Bronze medal of bravery. This was my first ever experience with a Full Honors Military funeral. It was an honor to be there, left me speechless...
