Margraten Memorial Day / Morneweck
#1

Dear friends ,

 

Yesterday I spent my day at Margraten to commemorate them who gave their lives for our freedom .

My special thoughts went to Pfc Bobby Morneweck , beloved brother of our friend and buddy Papa Art .

A few years ago I adopted the grave of Robert and I promised to take care of that place till the end of my days .

Here are some pics I took yesterday . I thought it would be a good idea to pay tribute to both brothers ….

Reg those are beautiful photos and such a beautiful sentiment also. It still amazes me when you folks from across the pond take such good care of our troops memories. I so appreciate that. Thank you very much for taking the time. The flowers are beautiful.

Dear friend. It's been way too long....

 

I agree with you regarding the roses. I think they capture the youth and beauty that Robert possessed. If you look at that smile of his... well if you can look at him without getting all teary-eyed, how can you not fall in love with that baby face! :wub:
