Can you tell my family married in to Irish families lol

Every government that has treated these men here and there off spring as second class citizens in their own country should now hang their heads in shame all for their greed ..

Wow, what a shame. It's like a gag order. I wonder what is really going down? Very strange. This is where my father is buried. If you click on the next slide, you'll see his grave, lol. Hey passed while I was overseas in Malaysia. This is what I came home to, his grave. My dad was my #1 advocate and closest friend.

Yes it is , makes you wonder does nt it yes strange is the word. Wow its a nice place clean and tidy. I shall take a look thank you. Shame you were not there when your dad died, I can imagine your dad was 1 advocate and closed friend which is lovely not many boys now a days are close to their dads or in some cases mothers either. I hope you remember the good memories you both spent together.

Yes I treasure the memories of him and how we genuinely enjoyed spending time together - fishing, baseball, projects around the house, or just talking. They were special times.
