Mr. Taylor,
You cross my mind quite often lately and I realize so much now the sacrifice you made to serve and protect. I think so much about the family...especially Mom, Monica and Melanie...You are missed and thought about and I know you can somehow hear me when I say thank you ..you are loved and not forgotten. I shared your story with my husband and even with that, there is a special feeling he has and special brotherhood you shared. I now know what you did and how important it is and what it cost...Forever More, Thank you..
