I will NEVER forget, or forgive, that they limited us to TEN people at my Veteran husband's funeral.
He was given Military Honors and that's the closest any non-family member was allowed to any of us, when the Airman presented my husband's flag to me.
Patriot Guard Riders were there and I so wanted to thank and hug each one of them, not just for presenting the Color Guard in honor of my husband, but for the fact that they do so much for all deceased Veterans and their families!
If just a few people had rebelled against this, my husband might have been honored by ALL members of his family, ALL his friends and ALL the students he taught.
