Before You Go

Is a "A tribute and thank you to our aging veterans. Dedicated to the veterans of WWII and the veterans of the Korean War who helped preserve that victory."

Read the story behind the song.

Listen to the song and watch the slideshow.

"Before You Go" is very moving and powerful. Beautifully enhanced by the accompanying photographs. Lyrics by Dr. Sam Bierstock and music by John Melnick.

Thanks to Roots Television Megan's Roots World for the link to the song.

Although they are no longer here to say "Thank You" to and receive acknowledgment of their contributions, two WWII vets in my family are remembered and honored in articles I've posted in the past year.
There are other WWII veterans in my family, honored in this tribute written for Memorial Day last year, but I don't have details of their service, yet.

The ability to comment has been turned off for all blog posts effective 21 May 2018. Kinexxions has been inactive for more than two years and most comments have come to me directly via email from readers but more than a few were simply spam. My desire is to keep the blog available to the public since there is value in what has been published, particularly posts dealing with family history.

I am still extremely interested in hearing from readers who might be related and have questions or simply want contact with a distant cousin. Please contact me directly via email at kinexxions@gmail.com

This action is also being taken partially due to the General Data Protection Regulation aka "GDPR" going into effect on 25 May 2018. Even though it is a regulation implemented by the European Union that primarily affects businesses and corporations, it governs how data about people can be used. That includes comments left on blog posts, thus the ability to comment is no longer available.
