The Holidays Apart As the holiday season rolls around once more, Thoughts of peace and happiness are clouded by war. Yes, it will be hard to sit down in front of a Christmas feast, When we think of daddy in a desert, in the Middle East. With sand in his face and his gun in his hands, Ready to do battle in foreign lands. We are at home without our dad, Instead of being excited, we are sad. We love and miss you SPC Ryan. F. Korn, Our hero, our dad. We've tried real hard to be good and not bad, We're not asking for toys this year, we just want our dad. Please try and bring our daddy home, So for all of us, whose families are together this season, If never before, we now have a reason. To pray for the soldiers in a land far away, And their loved ones at home who wait for that day. When their soldiers come home with love in their hearts, And hopes of never spending another Christmas apart. Whether you know our daddy or not, Please pray for him and his solider friends. We love you daddy and so does mommy! GOD take care of daddy. j 1997 Marlette Manufactured Home Price: $80,000 DESCRIPTION: This home has 3 bedrooms and 2 bath rooms. It is 1,500 square feet.
