What Will You Leave Behind?

Today is Sunday, a day the Lord has made, and we will be glad and rejoice in it.

Today is a day to honor the life and legacy of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk. I’ve watched many of the videos, television interviews and watched the effect of Charlie Kirk’s life on the lives of others, his legacy. Since Charlie Kirk’s assassination on 9-10-2025 there have been entertainers, popular and famous stars and political figures that have passed on from life on this planet leaving either a void or a legacy.

What will be your contribution – a void or a legacy?

What will you be remembered for?

Today is also a day to look back at my own life. The older I become I tend to lean more on how will people remember me? As the slim, trim and fit man of my youth? Or the seasoned jack of all trades and master of some? Or maybe it will be the grouchy old papa with those Mr. Potato “Crazy Eyes”?

Or will I be remembered at all?

My legacy will be my children, and their children’s children. I have two daughters and their names are “Grandma”.

I’m known as “Papa”. If that don’t make you smile……nothing will.

We haven’t always been one big happy family, but we were a military family, constantly moving, state to state, nation to nation and back again. There were schools in Colorado, California, Missouri, and Germany and back to Colorado.

We are a Christian family, where reverence to God, respect for each other and to strangers has been taught and passed down to the very youngest. Do unto others doesn’t mean before they do it unto you either. I’d like to think that God has my back as I walk the Christian walk. I’m a born again, committed follower of Jesus Christ, doing my best to be the best me I can be and shining the light, God’s light wherever I may go. I don’t shout it from the mountain tops, or broadcast it over the air waves, but talking to and about Jesus is a pretty cool place to be.

In fact God has a fantastic sense of humor – he created me! (& you)!

Lord let me not leave just a void, a space soon forgotten, but let my legacy be known as “A man who loved God, his family and The United States of America”. – RTM

I am the Real Truckmaster: 1. I am a born-again Christian (a sinner saved by the grace of God). 2 I am a retired US Army Transportation Sergeant First Class (E-7), my last position of assignment was as the "Truckmaster" of the US Army Transportation Motor Pool in Yokohama Japan (1989-90). 3. I am an amateur military historian. 4. I am a Thailand Veteran of the Vietnam War. 5. I detest "Politics as Usual". 6. I'm pro-life (Abortion is murder) and there is no justification or excuse for it. 7. I believe that we must place the security and welfare of America First! Clarification of Real Truckmaster Blogs For those who follow my blog posts on RTM blogs let me clarify and clear up some confusion. I write highlighting the inconsistencies and hypocrisy of the far-left's war on anything Trump. There are too many willing to argue without merit and I would be remiss attempting to argue against their ignorance, they have way too much experience. My writings are my personal opinion intended to be educational in nature, a bit humorous, satirical, while being informative providing food for thought, which is sorely lacking today. For those who find my posts offensive, I am truly sorry, you have the right NOT to read them as have many before you. I will not attempt to change your mind politically, but provide the opportunity to show something you may wish to consider, thereby illuminating prejudice and misinformation! - I am the Real Truckmaster!
