A Mothers Hug

On April  18th a lady came to Hot Shots Java where I sell pull pork sandwiches on Saturdays. She fumbled in her pocket and pulled out a $20 bill, extended her hand to me and asked "You're the who feeds the wounded in Germany, aren't you?" Yes, I replied. "I would like to give this to you" handing me the bill. "You fed my son in Germany and I thank you for that". As tears welled up in my eyes I walked over and gave her a big hug. "He called me the day after and said, Mom, a man from your area came and gave us a BBQ, it made me feel like home" More tears...

I cannot stop doing this, I cannot stop bringing a bit of home and happiness to our wounded troops. They need it, they deserve it. Please donate on my web site or directly to the American Legion at PO Box 678, Poulsbo, WA 98370 ear mark your check for TaTu BBQ.

Thank you for your help and support.
