Awww, I have tears as well. It was so kind of you to part with the quilt top I know it must have been very difficult. Johans took the top and finished it with love and pride to make another veteran happy. I am sure your husband is beaming with pride from Heaven. I am so sorry about your sudden loss, may God keep you under his Angels wing as you go through a difficult adjustment.

Thank you for sharing you quilt with veteran. Your story is wonderful and knowing that you could make a veteran more comfortable is special. I bet your husband is looking down on you with a big smile.

Thank you for sharing this with us. It's sweet that your quilt went to another Vietnam veteran. Your husband would have been proud.
