God Bless America & the Veterans Who Protect Us!
On this Veterans Day I find myself thinking of my great-grandfather, Perry DeVito. Pop, as he was known to me, served in two major wars and lived to be 92.
I was too young to ever talk with him about his military experiences or what it meant to him to be a veteran. I wish I had. And even more I wish I’d thanked him for his service, for his courage, for fighting for the freedoms I so openly enjoy today.
So, to my great grandfather, and to all the brave men & women who have or are currently serving in the armed forces, particularly those who have had to go to war, and most especially to our Bello Veterans, Andy & I salute you, and dedicate this beautiful version of America the Beautiful by Keb Mo to you.
In peace & love,
Chris & Andy
Thank you Chris and Andy for your support, now and always, of our nation’s troops. I can’t tell you how blessed I am to have Dan home safely with me this Veteran’s Day. I always get a bit teary-eyed when we’re out together and people shake his hand and say thank you because truthfully I feel as if many people have forgotten about the sacrifices our heroes make each and every day to keep us safe. Thank you for remembering. We love you!
Beautiful indeed! Thanks for reminding us of the special significance of this day.
