Sgt Abe Anthony, retired today after having served from 1975 until today in 2010. I can not begin to say how proud I was at the way he left. He was honoured and showered with great words. He will be missed. I am so glad that I have Abe as a friend since his departure from the military does not mean his departure from contact with me. Abe, I also appreciate your kind words about me. Friends in the military are hard to keep given time and space. We have been friends since 1976 and I feel I am the better for it.

The prayer before meals. Though this father had spiritual guidance, his insight into sports requires more thought!!

Seniors went for supper first....

Notice how my mother is not going to fall for the "seniors first" trick
