Angels Among Us!

Body
Some retire from a job so they can rest, Johnny and Pam Gordon retired so they could get more work done. Even in the twilight of their life, nothing has slowed down in the Gordon home. Johnny was mowing the lawn the first time I came by, so I waited for him to finish and stopped by for one of the most wonderful visits I’ve ever had.

The warm summer breeze blows on children’s faces. They stand next to their mentor. Filled with excitement, they wait for the action. Three, two, one, blastoff! A simple bottle rocket flies into the air. The children are filled with joy as their creations come to life.
