Dear Halloween, _ must have been asleep for work when I tried to call him. It would be a bold faced lie if I said that I wasn't the least bit disappointed. Truth is, I was hoping to restart our Halloween graveyard roam tradition. Our first time was in the early morning hours of October 31st, 2009. I took off from work to pick him up from the airport in _ late that evening on the 30th. He wanted to surprise his family and take his little sisters trick or treating. ...I thought that he would remember...I did. How could I forget? It was only one of the most amazing nights of my life. I fear that perhaps it meant something much more to me than it ever would to him. Ah, well. It was nice, I placed stones on a few Veterans gravestone along with their families to pay respects and honor their memories. While I may have not known let alone been alive to have ever met them, they are unforgotten Soldiers and fallen heroes nonetheless.
