Old ‘family’ chair kept to remind me of sacrifices

There is a  simplewooden, ladderback chair that sits fairly  unobtrusively in our home that most people probably look at as some sort of odd decoration. It marks a spot at the beginning of the hallway to the  edrooms in our little  retirement home. No one sits in the chair. It holds a decorative cushion about dogs with a clear plastic pocket for a photo. It is used to display one of the most prized members of our household, Sawyer, The Famous River Wonder Dog.
