HAPPY FATHER'S DAY FROM THE CHILDREN WHO NEVER WERE...

A most extraordinary story from a most extraordinary woman.  Imagine, six weeks after your wedding day, you receive word that your husband was airborne over enemy territory and just disappeared.  That was 68 years ago...and still she waits.

Peggy Harris--holding onto a fading dream of a future with children and grandchildren; a vision of celebrating Father's Day for her beloved--waited over six decades for an answer, but the mystery remained.  There was no help from her Congressman; no one cared enough to pick up a phone to inquire.  And then, by what might be called the Hand of God, this lifetime mystery began to unravel for this Virtuous Woman with an ending you won't imagine....

    1. Thank you, Melissa... My emotions are experiencing a most similar wave. It makes us come in touch with who we are as women. Made so differently than men in our emotions and our capacity for love. Be blessed today.

  2. Commitment, honor, no guile, integrity of heart. May I live as virtuously as this widow all the remaining days of my life.

  3. Loved watching this remarkable story Janet. It is aggravating that those who could help find an answer for Billie's bride did nothing, but so uplifting that the end of her search gave her so much joy. What a hero he was in the lives of so many. May we always be grateful for all that our servicemen and women sacrifice for us and for the loved ones they leave behind.
