Hope all is well with everybody...gotta vent for a minute. A local man named Mark Coleman was recently killed in Afghanistan when he stepped on an explosive device. He had done two tours and was on his third when this happened. You hear about deaths all the time but when one happens to be from your own tiny community it really hits home. The sickening thing is some out of towners have gotten permits to protest the funeral here. What am I missing? Even if you disagree with the war its still a human that may have had no choice but to be sent miles away from family/friends etc to fight for our freedom. I say its pretty sickening that people do this. If anybody is interesed in reading about him go to goldendale sentinel.com and its on the front page. Take care everybody
