14. My Brother in Law and Those in the Middle East

I remember my brother in law who died in Vietnam. I miss him in our family. Mu daughter never had an uncle or cousins, we are a very small family.
This experience radicalized us and we spent fourteen and still going years in the Peace Movement. I remember the million people who died in Iraq, the 275,000 who died in Syria. Each life lost leaves a hole somewhere. Respect human life and work for Peace.
