              Man, Randy I know how tuff that is... The thing that always gets me is when they play Taps... That is the most mournful, yet honoring sound I've ever heard. You hang onto that flag and those shell casings... They represent a country that honors your dad's service to our country and should be a source of pride and honor to you. Once again, thanks to your dad for his service... fair winds and clear sailing for him...

              Lyrics 3 stanzas

              Day is done.
              Gone the sun.
              From the lakes
              From the hills.
              From the sky.
              All is well.
              Safely rest.
              God is nigh.

              Fading light.
              Dims the sight.
              And a star..
              Gems the sky.
              Gleaming bright.
              From afar.
              Drawing nigh.
              Falls the night.

              Thanks and praise.
              For our days.
              Neath the sun
              Neath the stars.
              Neath the sky
              As we go.
              This we know.
              God is nigh

                Prayers for you and your family. Buried my father last year, he was in Coast Guard. Like SS said above when they played taps it was pretty emotional.

                    Thank you sir. Yes, when TAPS started is when I had the most trouble.
