Missing Man's Table The table round--to show our everlasting concern for our missing men. The tablecloth is white--symbolizing the purity of their motives when answering the call to duty. The single red rose, displayed in a vase, reminds us of the life of each of the missing, and their loved ones and friends of these Americans who keep the faith,awaiting answers. The vase is tied with a red ribbon, symbol of our continued determination to account for our missing. A slice of lemon on the bread plate is to remind us of the bitter fate of those captured and missing in a foreign land. A pinch of salt symbolizes the tears endured by those missing and their families who seek answers. The Bible represents the strength gained through faith to sustain those lost from our country, founded as one nation under God. The glass is inverted--to symbolize their inability to share this mornings /or days toast. The chairs are empty--they are missing.

"In Memory of My Mia" This is a tribute to my MIA/POW, Capt Alan R Trent, AirForce Pilot shot down over Cambodia on May 13, 1970. I wish every MIA/POW had someone to do a tribute to them to remind others it's (not over ) till all are home where they belong. Remember they went over there for our country,our country should bring them back. I wear Alan's M.I.A/POW bracelet in honor of him and to remind others not to forget. People have said Betty take it off,it's been a lot of years. I have had the bracelet off once in all these many many years, not by my choice, it's there day and night and through good and bad times. Alan's not alone, his memory and sacrifice for his country will not be forgotten as long as I can help it.I hope and pray America brings him home were he belongs, and give him and those who love him the peace they so deserve. It makes me proud we share the same home state (Ohio),God Bless you Alan R Trent. Sincerely Yours Betty |
