Furthermore, I find comfort in knowing that I come from a place where the people still take care of their own! I have 3 children...who are back home in Illinois...very close to you, in Essex...Our land, horses and dogs keep my wife and the kids busy...

...I have visited many countries and I thank God every day for being an American and for the blessings we have living in the U.S....It really is the best country in the world!...
