Forgot to mention - LOVE your avatar. I am a big Felix the Cat fan. One of my fave cartoons growing up.
Felix the Cat, the wonderful, wonderful cat! We were discussing him in a post about our fave memories, just this week. How timely!

I'm fortunate enough to have spoken with a few of them and they definitely have BIG hearts! They all remind of Desmond Doss in many ways. Well, I don't even think any of them fired a gun in combat! lol
