Dear Liz,

Happy July 5th, Tyndald Day, to you and all on the Isle of MAN (*PARADISE*) for surely you live in land of history and beauty that is the best of both worlds. We celebrated our Independence Day, July 4th, with a barbecure and fireworks and remembrance of those who have served and given their lives for our FREEDOM and for those now serving in IRAQ and AFGHANSISTAN, and all over the world protecting our freedoms.

I salute the motherland of my heritage in their TYNDALD DAY celebrations of their traditions and for the many MANX who have served their country with honor and valour.

We all have been blessed from our CREATOR and we are to be thankful for men and women who have given us so much, even to the giving of their lives, so all may live in FREEDOM, which is the most precious gift, not to be taken for granted and never to step on the blood of those who gave their lives to give us this way of life that many around the world DO NOT HAVE.

GOD BLESS THE ISLE OF MAN AND GOD BLESS AMERICA.

Salutations to all on the Isle,

Mrs. Rosa
