Marcus Luttrell - Lone Survivor

Hi

I am sending a message here to Marcus - I have been trying to reach him. I would love him to autograph my copy of Lone Survivor, so I may put it on display in the house with the flag and medals.

Hey- Marcus,
The last time my son, Shane, and I were together was Christmas of 1994 - he was 11 then. After that tearful good by to all 4 of my sons - the divorce that his father and I were going through took him from my arms "Forever". But not from my heart and certainly not from my soul. What I would really love to have from you - is some of your stories about Shane. Something to help me fill the emptiness I feel for him. I think he would be so happy for you share some of the fun "SEAL" things you both experienced during your Careers - and that would help me so very much.

Sincerely,
: ) Valerie

Poway Street Fair Nov 11th 2007

Hey Kids... It's me - The Avon Lady!

My AVON friends and I did the Poway Street fair this weekend and had a really good time to boot. We had a little bit of rain, mostly sprinkles... and that just pushed more women who love AVON into our booth and that was fun!! In the photo there you can see all my Avon Fragrances and they were all being sprayed so much that we really had that street fair smelling great!!

I also met someone there named Mike Lumpkin, as he and his group walked past our booth. He is a retired Navy Seal Commander. He is running for California's 52nd District as Congressman. He and his group were wearing I Like Mike teashirts. That was fun. I introdued myself to him and he knows Shane. We spoke for a minute or two and he gave me a hug -that left me with a warm feeling inside. I think I will vote for him.

Boys - you know I Love you...
