An off-the-beaten-track of adversity, Susan, during that time in November, whereto, their memories were recognized decades later. Thank you for your endearing expressions my friend, Aloha William

I really like how you wrote about an event that actually happened. I lived that time but do not recall this story. A great tribute to them. Congrats in my contest.

I appreciate my placement, Andrea, for this heartwrenching occurrence that had its film debut in 2006 I believe. Thanks again my friend, Aloha William
