I live in a community that prides itself in patriotism and faith. Earlier this year one of our own gave his life in order to save three others. Staff Sgt Jason Rogers United States Marine Corp, died in Afghanistan. His story made national news and so did our community when the Westboro Baptist Church (Not REAL Christians) tried to protest at his funeral. THAT isn't happening in Brandon, MS.
So this morning I visited Jason at his grave in Brandon, MS. It was a beautiful cool morning. There was some grass blades that were on his grave stone that I cleaned off and I straightened up a few items that people left so that it looked uniform. All of us need to take a few minutes from time to time and thank our fallen heroes. Jason Rogers USM is certainly a hero.
