Just to far. My thoughts will be with him though.

cant ask for better...
The fact you loved him and he loved you is what matters. I bet he could give two ***** about a ceremony.
Mother in law and father in law (Master Gunnery Sergeant) are buried there. Every time I hear taps and the 21 gun salute I loose it and end up crying like a baby. But, the ceremony with the color guard is something to see. Don't think I will be going. Brings back too many memories. And I do not know any of his family.
I have to agree with hopper. It is how you treat a person when they are alive that matters. If anyone needs a couch (sorry grandkids have all the beds), you got one at my house.

taps doesn't bother me until it is played at a funeral and the 21 gun salute, another hard one is when they hand you the flag.
