    Default Beam of Light Shines on Fallen Soldier’s Miracle Dog

    By ABC News

    Reported by ABC News’ Kimberly Launier:

    It was an overcast day in Newport, N.H., when a simple “20/20″ shoot turned into something that made me wonder about life after death.

    I was filming soldier Justin Rollin’s parents Skip and Rhonda playing with their dog Hero, whose rescue from the Iraq War zone where Justin died was nothing short of a miracle.

    Sometimes when Rhonda hugged Hero she would softly pet her face and coo, “Justin, are you in there?” It was Rhonda’s gentle way of remembering their son and his last living connection to Hero. At one point, Hero wandered off and took a stroll in the backyard. All of a sudden, the clouds broke and a light began to solidify in a beam directly down on Hero — a kind of vertical halo.

    As this dramatic ray of light was shining on Hero she turned to look at me, and it was all I could do to hold the camera steady and not drop it in astonishment.

    You posted some similar dog/hero/fallen soldier photo-shopped garbage here last year as well. Only in Lala land would someone fall in love with a faked photo as this.

    Maybe I'm wrong, .... maybe the only respect a US soldier does get is from his dog, because the rest of the country and government sure $hits on them once they are used up, ....

    I watched 20/20 last night that had this story on it. Just the way the dog walked up to that corner of the deck and the way the sunbeam came down on her was interesting.

    Agreed. Very sad

    I think HM should apologize for making such a remark.

    Thanks, Supergram, but apologies from Handyman mean little, because he is respected so little.

    He's an angry and unfortunate person. 'Nuff said.

    Wow I guess this is handy's version of an apology?

    You are an angry bitter person.

    Quite the opposite. Anybody that knows me will tell you I am as happy and friendly as anyone could wish for. You guys just get trapped into this cyber-game we play and take waaaaay too much to heart.

    If I believed everybody that was a jerk on here was a jerk in real life, this world would be in real trouble. My life away from this keyboard something most people would give their left nut for, .... I feel humbled.

    Oh well, off to make arrangements to meet up with Dragonfly to give her some help/advice on her insulation problems, .... yeah, me helping someone out, .... imagine that!

    Hmm?

    Well anyone who know's me, knows that expressing my opinion is part of what I do even if you don't like the answer.

    I express the same opinions, with the same candor online as I do in the real world.

    If you disagree Oh-Well, but I am not going to stoop to calling you names.

    I guess what you are really telling us is that you are 2-Faced? In the real world you are timid and joyfull but online you are a cyberbully?

    As far as wanting to be you. How do you know you wouldn't give your right nut to be me?
