" Thank You "

There are a lot of us that have goals and ambititions. Some of us actually achieve them, and the rest of us are still applying ourselves to that endevavor. This is about one of those that have reached thiers. She is a woman that has lived, enjoyed, achieved and overcome. She has fell from the sky, rode the Dragon Tail. Been in a war, survied Boot Camp, gave birth, built things, applied make-up. She is a Daughter, Mother, Sister, Neice, Cousin and a Friend. She has been happy, sad, mad and strong. She has never been weak. She has come up thought the ranks and reached the rank of Master Sergant in the United States Marine Corps. She is retiring this month with honors. She is an outstanding Marine. Semper Fi is her motto in the Marines and as she retires from the Corps that motto carries through that transistion into her civilian life to be applied to her family and friends. This Lady is the meaning of excellence, devotion, honor, country, comrade, family and friends. Thank you Jackie for all you have done, thank you for your sevice. I salute you Master Sargent Jacklyn D. Somers.....
With Much Respect and Love,
Uncle Brad
