Oh My ,Darlene, what an amazing video!! I don't know if I could have made that choice.
It sure makes you think. The video,along with the wonderful moving music,gave me chills! Thanks for sharing,it was a wonderful way to remind us all of the sacrifice. |

Remarkable, in 1993, at the Praise Gathering in Indy, I attended a talk by Adolph Coors IV in which he told this story. I'm not sure, but I think he said that his grandfather (Adolph Coors, Jr.)'s family knew the man who actually lived this tragic event.
It's an amazing, shining example.

dang it Dar, that got me tearing big time. I made that choice once, took 4 trips in a badly burning building to pull out a family and possibly allow my kids to lose their only parent, the fire scared my lungs and possibly triggered my MS, so I and my kids still will pay this price, I am just grateful i have not had to make such a choice like in the video clip, thank you for reminding us, of a word so few truly understand
Sacrifice (from a Middle English verb meaning "to make sacred", from Old French, from Latin sacrificium: sacr, "sacred" + facere, "to make")
