pngfan1 Posted October 7, 2011 Report Posted October 7, 2011 I just saw a request on Facebook and thought it was a good idea . In honor of fallen soldier David Drake (2008 Lumberton graduate) , we should leave the purple and white at home tonight and wear RED , WHITE, and BlUE. This heroes life ended in Afghanistan and was flown home this morning. Prayers to the Drake family and may God bless all his family , friends , and the Lumberton community.

pngfan1 Posted October 7, 2011 Author Report Posted October 7, 2011 Hope the word gets out. I'm leaving my purple in the closet tonight and will wear Red , White, and Blue.
shovel Posted October 7, 2011 Report Posted October 7, 2011 Good post pngfan1. It is a small, yet meaningful gesture to honor this young man and his family. I do hope that word gets out.
NDNation Posted October 7, 2011 Report Posted October 7, 2011 I work in Beaumont, and leaving straight from there to Lumberton...I wish I had known...First time I will ever feel bad about sporting the Purple and White...I hope everyone respects the Moment of Silence and sends prayers to this Hero and his family.
