View all 404 ReflectionsI met your mother this week at my son's (State Trooper Christopher J. Lambert) wall dedication ceremony in Springfield, Illinois. I felt her pain of missing you when she approached me and wrapped her arms around me. The pain of loosing a child is almost unbearable!! Your mom is a strong woman and I'm happy to have met her. We will both and all gone on loving and honoring our sons for giving their ultimate sacrifice and knowing that one day we will see our boys again. God Bless You and thank you for your service.
