"Our Eyes In The Sky"

On a day long ago

In a far-away land,

You rose to the skies

To obey a command.

While we who were here

In our safe, secure place,

Never knew of the danger,

Never knew what you'd face.

We live in a land

That today is still free,

Who can measure the gift

To mankind and to me?

Our "Eyes in the Sky",

Looking down from above,

We hope you can see

What you gave us in love.

On a day long ago,

In a far-away land,

When you rose to the skies

To obey a command.

With love, Chrystal Krueger Sinn

It was a little over 50 years ago that Aunt Chrystal lost her husband in a plane crash, leaving her with two small children, my cousins Sue and Theresa. While the circumstances were different, she does understand the pain of the survivors.
