How utterly tragic that you lost your life at the hands of a despicable cretin that once worked among our ranks. It is a travesty that this happened, but you are a hero and will always be remembered as such! My heart breaks for your wife and child, however I am certain that your brothers in California will look after them in your absence. You will rest in peace at the foot of our Lord and Savior, and he will hopefully be damned to a lake of fire for eternity! May God bless and keep your family, and may you rest in eternal peace.

Seasons drift so quickly
A lesson in the making
Beneath the single sky
All things must come to die.

Therein lies the silence
The journey beyond the breath
To flowers in the forest
We've now become in death.

But speak of the glint of the eye
Reflected in Damascus Blade
For those who saw freedom & honor
And in battle their lives they gave.

So take heart men of Valor
Know your deeds will endure the night
Live on as flowers in the forest
Live on, within God's light.

Rest in Peace, my brother, your tour of duty is done.
