    Default Memory Quilt

    I'm making this memory quilt, for my husband. He lost his son last March, he had retired from the military as a helicopter pilot. And was working as a life like helicopter pilot, he had delivered a young boy patient to a hospital and was on the return trip home when he got in bad weather and his chopper went down and he didn't survive. I'm making two of these one for my husband and one for his ex-wife Matt's mom.

    That is a really nice memory quilt. I am so sorry to hear of his passing as he helped so many others. This will be a blessing for your dear husband, and the mother of his son. Blessings to you for your love and thoughtfulness.
