Title: I only wish...
Post by: buxnbullz on May 28, 2012, 11:40:48 AM: I only wish that these metals could be proudly adorned on his chest or hung from his neck. I thought it was fitting to go out this morning and hang them on his tombstone.

His life had a rough beginning when his Dad was killed in an auto accident when he was 3. I raised him from 4 years old until about 12. I'm proud of the man he became.

Thanks for posting.

Nathan was a son that any father would be proud of.
