I extend to you my deepest sympathy on the death of your son, Specialist Patrick E. Boss. I know the irreparable loss that you have suffered and fully realize there is little I can say to help you in this moment of sorrow. In time, you may find reassurance in the thought that he died in the service of his country and that I am personally grateful for her service. His memory will continue to live on within many that knew him. All, those who worked with him and his leaders, admired Patrick. On Wednesday, March 10, 2010, at 1:30 PM, Patrick was in route to begin his rest and recuperation leave when the convoy he was in was attacked. Patrick was shot in the neck and immediately received first aid treatment by fellow Soldiers in the convoy.
Not many people would withstand having to go off to war knowing their life was on the line. There is much respect and gratitude inclined towards those who did and sacrificed everything they had. Our cordially veterans - the ones who fought and endured the bestial wars, the ones who knew they could fall at any moment, the ones who, despite the horror and fear
I was far too young to remember but we have pictures to show me with him by his truck or visiting him. My dad tries to give me and my sister every moment of him that he can. I cherish every moment because who could have known something could have happened to him and i may have never seen him again. He’s the best dad i could ever ask for and i wouldn’t trade him for anything. You should feel the same if you have someone in your family that served. From the time you wake up to the time you lay down at night to go to sleep you should pray to protect the ones out on the line protecting us and thank for the nes that came home safe and the ones that have been home for a long time that fought in wars so long ago we probably weren’t even alive fights that may have happened that we were too young to know. I know that I’m thankful for every single soldier man and women out still fighting or home today with family. They risk everything and go into it knowing the dangers and knowing they might not come

For you away from getting hurt when you go outside so you are the best
If you have not already looked into it, ASU does have a Veterans Honors Stole that they offer for graduation. There is also a special ceremony that can be attended as well for students who are Veterans. I have included the links below. Please be sure to submit your application once you have everything set with your graduate program, and I will be happy to process your application. Let me know if you have any questions and thank you for service.
I extend my deepest sympathy to you in your recent loss of your mother, Staff Sergeant Stephanie W. Plank. I share your loss, as she was one of my finest Soldiers. I cannot begin to imagine what you are going through and the impact this loss will have on you. I pray that God may bring comfort and peace to your family during this most difficult time.
I would like to thank you for the time that you have sacrificed. I am so very grateful for the hours and hours of dedication you have put forth. Your constant bravery and courage shows the type of person that you chose to be. I couldn't be more appreciative that you are willing to risk your life for others. Not many people are willing to stand up and fight for our freedom but you did and I am very thankful for that. You served for my freedom to live a free and enjoyable life. I hope that you have had one of the best days today, at the Washington D.C. memorial. Thank you for stepping forward when no one else would.
I came to Harper Texas and joined the boy scout troop. I was introduced to boy scouts by an Eagle Scout named Jacob Krebs. Jacob helped me earn my badges and achieve all the ranks I hold. Jacob taught me the importance of helping others and the community. He also helped me understand the quality and the importance of teamwork, and that you can't do everything on your own. Jacob and the Boy Scouts taught me responsibility and the courage to help others and to do what is right. I am achieving Eagle scout in honor of Jacob. Jacob died while training to be a Navy seal he was holding his breath at the bottom of a pool trying to see how long he could go and he passed out. The news of his death hit me hard and that is why I am dedicating my Eagle scout rank to him because without his guidance I would not be in scouts or the person I am
I was given an assignment to choose a soldier who sacrificed his life during the Vietnam War. I had the privilege to study the service and untimely death of your beloved husband. The postings of his friends clearly show that he was a kind man who is greatly missed by all who loved him. I can’t tell you how much I admire the fact that at such a young age, he was willing to stand on the front lines to serve and protect the United States. I owe the freedoms and liberties that I enjoy to his sacrifice. I can’t begin to understand how you must have felt to learn of his death so soon after your marriage. I imagine he went to Vietnam full of hope that he would be able to return home to you. I’m so very sorry that he wasn’t able too. If there is anything I can offer in support, please know this: Learning about his military service and his death in battle will not be forgotten by me. I thank you for the sacrifice you have paid and I will always be grateful for your husband’s sacrifice on behalf of this great
It is a Memory dedicated to Keith, an Iron Worker whom I met on 9-13-01 struggling to get to my triage location on W. 34th Street in NYC. I have met Keith briefly, and I hope wherever he is today, that he is ok. On that day, mid-morning, around 10:45am, I was cleaning up a wound on the arm of a firefighter, wrapping the gash with sterile pads. I washed his eyes with sterile water and wiped the tears off his cheeks, as the firefighter shook and sobbed in talking about his friends and colleagues at the Eng.55, Bat.2 363 Broome St. He explained that he lost 2 of his close friends there, hit by rubble
served alongside him. It is unfortunate that this tragedy has taken him from his family,
Please accept my condolences for the loss of your mother, Staff Sergeant Stephanie W. Plank, and always had a positive attitude and the presence of her company was a pleasure for the entire section. She was a fine Soldier, this was an unfortunate accident. I know this loss has taken a young women from her family and her friends. I can’t put into words how sorry I am, the loss has had the deepest impact on our section, and will continue to for us still serving. As you know, your mother was attached to 1st Brigade, 10th Mountain Division, to the National Training Center. I worked in the same section as your mother for the entire deployment. Stephanie always had you on her mind and would share stories about you every day in our section. We still
Oh... I am very sorry about your loss, but I’m sure your father would do anything just to come back and see your face one more time. Look at you and see your warming smile one last time. Now let’s find your mother.
On behalf of our family, I would like to thank all our church members who expressed their condolences for the demise of our grandmother, especially Rev. Saju Chacko Achen for his condolence speech during the viewing service and Mr. Varkey Koshy, Mr. and Mrs. P. M. Philip and Mr. Koshy P John for attending the viewing service at St. Stephen's Marthoma Church, New Jersey.
There are not enough words or ways to express how grateful I am to my family, friends, this community and absolute strangers. I just want to say thank you to everyone for their prayers and support, both emotionally and financially, for the many cards, hugs and phone calls that have been recieved after Justin’s passing.
Through the research part of the process I learned how pervasive technology has become. It is scary enough how much we depend on it but to see how even things that seem to be set in stone like death is being altered by our own creations was really mind-blowing. Things like this you never realize although it is happening right now, to all of us. The research part altered my own perspective in ways I never had expected it to. A once conservative uploader of personal ideas and events in fear of them being shared with everyone with access to social media outlets, I am, selfishly enough, considering posting regularly to leave a presence for the generations to come. Another thing that I learned was how we wrongfully attempt to blame technology
