Brotherly Love

With half a dozen big brothers, things were certainly lively growing up, and with my brother, Ray, we could always count on a laugh. He was daring and adventurous and could do unbelievable things on his bike and motorcycle. It's not surprising that he became a Golden Knight, the U.S. Army's Parachuting Team. He's retired from the army now and works the graveyard shift at the Post Office, spending his days biking and in other active pursuits.
He's still funny--

and still makes us laugh.

He's still adventurous and outdoorsy--


and I wish we could see him more frequently. So when Ray and Denise were on their way home from Death Valley to their home in Oklahoma and their plane was grounded because of the weather I was so happy to see them.
