    A Sad Anniversary

    14 years ago today we lost my Uncle McMurdo. He was a volunteer in the Royal Navy during WWII. He was 14 years old then. Every year on this sad anniversary I wear this kilt the Royal Naval Association tartan which I had woven and hand sewn in his memory, Barb Tewksbury did an incredible job on this kilt and I am forever grateful to her for her work on this kilt and her friendship. I am also wearing a pair of his cuff links. I find it difficult to believe that it has been 14 years. I miss him every day. At any rate I wanted to share these photos with you all.

    It is said that no man may die while his name is yet spoken.

    As long as you remember and honor him, he lives on through you.

    S/F,
