Uncle,
I'm sitting here trying to figure out why I'm here. Out of all the days to come to the site and witness the love for you. I don't have but one memory where I am with you and I hear your voice. That memory defines who you are to me. I wish I had more time to know but honestly I think it's already understood. Alot of you resides in our souls. For that we keep fighting. Every Woodmore with the blood will stand to honor the Lord and those who watch upon us. Watch over me. I love you.
