   Mark, mostly known as "the clean life" recently received some devastating news that his 26 year old cousin died this morning in a helicopter crash in Afghanistan while serving our country (USA). He needs all the love and support he can get at this time. There are no words to describe the pain a family must endure when they receive such ill news.

         Mark, we all spend so much time here that we get to know each other and become friends along the way. It's amazing to see how much we rely on the HP community whenever we are in need of strength, advice, distraction, or just plain venting. We can't lend you our ears, but we can lend you our eyes.

   I salute your cousin, Mark, and thank both of you for the price you have paid for all of us.
   
   I know and feel your pain; my own cousin left us many years ago in Vietnam, although he lives on in our memories and shall not be forgotten.

          You got that right Klara, the best people on earth. Linda is doing well and she said to thank you for asking and to thank you for your kindness Klara. Channel 6 news at six had a piece they did on Ryan and his coach in High School when he was a star in their Basebal team > I thnk they may air it again I hope at 11 pm . I rushed home because Linda said it would be on and I got stuck in Friday weekenders heading to the shore.so I only saw about 15 seconds of it. I am heading to the TVand see If i can catch it now.
          
          Thanks again Klara for posting that. You are truly a wonderful person
