Julie Smart Koob with Fort Lee Area Homes For your real estate needs, the right choice, the SMART choice. "I remember my first experience buying a home, and it was difficult and confusing.

Born and raised in Virginia, I returned to Virginia in 2003 after my husband retired from the military. A graduate of Virginia Tech, I took time off from working to start a family and accompany Keith to three duty stations: Washington, PA (south of Pittsburgh), Ft. Greely, AK (the end of the Alaska-Canada Highway), and Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD (at the top of the Chesapeake Bay). Now back in Vir

ginia for good, my interest in the real estate market motivated me to get my real estate license and make a career out of something I found so intriguing. It took forever to find the right house, on the right lot, in the right neighborhood, with the right schools AND for a price I could afford. My goal is to help each and every one of my clients find the same thing, and to take the stress out of the home-buying process." Now a resident of eastern Chesterfield County, I recently joined Napier Realtors ERA. With offices in Colonial Heights and the metro Richmond area, I am proud to be associated with an office that works hard to service our military members and their families. With my military background, I am looking forward to helping other military families find a house that will become their home! In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, volunteering for the schools and the Fort Lee Area Spouses Club, and tackling home improvement projects. Julie Smart Koob, REALTOR

When she became a military spouse, Jenna Henderson’s idea of Memorial Day changed too. “I used to be like so many other Americans. I was rather oblivious to what Memorial Day really was about,” said Jenna Henderson, widow of Army Sergeant First Class Chris Henderson, who died in Afghanistan in 2007 at the age of 35, leaving behind Henderson and their daughter, Kayley.

“Once Chris was killed in action in Afghanistan, the day became even more surreal. I looked up the history of the day and realized there is a long tradition,” said Henderson.” Behind every man or woman that gave the ultimate sacrifice is a family remembering that loss on Memorial Day.”

Please take a moment to read this article and then reflect on what this day means. To the military members who paid the ultimate sacrifice, their family, friends and comrades, my sincere thank you.

It can be jarring to be a Gold Star family member to see so much messaging that is disconnected from the meaning of the holiday.

"Aging in place..."

We have been in our home since 2007. Once you stop PCSing, it is amazing how quickly stuff begins to accumulate. You buy a new lamp, but you put the old one in the attic because the kids might want it one day - news flash, they normally don't, especially the girls!

So on this rainy day weekend I'm hitting the bonus room (i.e.DOOM room - Didn't Organize, Only Moved) and attic. As I opened a box, I thought it was funny that this article was on top!

How about you, are you "aging in place" and in the process of decluttering?
