As responsible adults and concerned parents, we decided to address problems of user safety and security when communicating on Internet and built a web site that provides a safe and secure environment for ourselves and our children.

That web site is www.Ntouch4Families.com.

The web site puts you in charge of your online environment where only those who are members of your family or circle of friends can interact with you and your children.

Since you control who is in your 'family hub', you can be sure that there will be no inappropriate advertising or viruses sent to either you or your children, or that people who are not known to you are talking to your children when they are online at www.Ntouch4Families.com.

With increased mobility of 21st Century living, more and more people are locating in communities distant from relatives, due to job requirements or retirement. This is an ideal form of communication. It’s also perfect for children away at college. Grandparents have found using this innovative site, with its wide array of features, a wonderful way to bond with grandchildren and keep abreast of domestic activities, as well as a means of leaving a legacy -- in text and pictures -- they will treasure for generations.

and hope here at home.

Before his departure my son and I traveled to Washington DC where he and I stood together

in beautiful new World War II Veterans Memorial, we walked Viet Nam Wall and through

the Korean War Veterans Memorial.

Our national memorials in Washington DC have a direct tie to each of veterans flags in

our homes. Each represents individuals who have given of themselves for freedom we enjoy

in America.

Your veteran's flag should not be placed in a drawer or closet and forgotten. Display or even

fly your veterans flag for all to see. Tell people about this person who gave so much.

Cherish your flag as you did loved one who earned it.

My father's flag is proudly displayed in a case made for display of burial flags in our home.

We have an engraved plate attached with a remembrance of him so our grand children can

remember him with pride we all do, as a family and as Americans.
