I miss you. I think about you all the time, especially about the last time I "talked" to you. There is so much I want to tell you. I still have your grandfather's knife and your carhartt sweatshit (I wear it whenever I think about you). I really need you. You are/were my best friend.

I am so sorry. I heard about Robert from my brother, and keep remembering him picking me up in the alley behind your house in Clovis, after I'd stepped on a nail, and cleaning me up till my mother got there. I just want you to know, he will never be forgotten.

Your old school buddy, Class of 2000."

"To the family of Mr. Kassin,
I served with your son at Ft. Carson, Colorado from March 2000-November 2002. He was always a fun individual, and always had a smile on his face. he always sang "Amazed" by Lonestar, and would put his uniquness on the song, which always made people smile. Never was there a time when I would spend with him, that he did not make me laugh, or at the very least smile. My deepest condolences to you and your family as even though it has been a year, you still grieve for your loss. It will be in his honor that I will place a photo from the website in my flight gear, to remind everyone that I fly with, that we have a very difficult job, and that freedom does come with a price. Your loved on paid the ultimate price, and I know that he paid that with honor. May the love and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ and Almighty God be with all of you."

"To SGT Robert Kassin
AKA Morgan
AKA H.I.M.S. (Hoof in mouth syndrome) Silver Star Outlaws (2002-2003)

Hi Morgan,

This is your sister, Mid-Evil Angel (June 2002 - June 2003); your fellow Silver Star Outlaw and soldier who served with you at Camp Casey, South Korea and again at Ft. Benning, GA.

Your Outlaw family loves you and misses you.

I love you and miss you.

I was there for you when you first heard that your brother was shot in a drive-by shooting in Houston, TX and later learned it was a cousin (if I'm remembering that correctly).

I was there for you when you were afraid that going through with your divorce would mean you would never see your son again.

I was also there when you broke up from so many relationships that you tried so desperately to make work.

You were there for me when Nuke was such an a**hole and I needed a shoulder to cry on.

And you were always ready to help a friend or stranger in need, be the life of the party and always the first one to be able to laugh at yourself.

Well, the lung problems didn't do you in nor the smoking either.

You died as I know you wanted to die; as a soldier serving his country, as a hero and as a father his son could be very proud of.

I still cry to this day when I remember you, buddy.

I'm crying as I am type this now.

I miss you!!!

Goodbye"
SPC Margaret May C. Lambert (Ret), United States Army, Military Police of Dover-Foxcroft, ME
