PamS - How sad. I understand what you mean about crying your way through it. But in the end you made a beautiful and special gift for your friend.
I have a friend whose son deployed to Afghanistan right before Christmas. He's 25 and has been in the service since he was 18. I keep him and my friend in my prayers.
