Fallen Heroes of Operation Iraqi Freedom

"January 24, 2010
We measure time on earth, in seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years. One day at a time, has led to six years. There have been alot of babies born since you passed away. I bet you can say the same; alot of souls have been 'born' into heaven. Jason, knowing what 'pains' happen on this planet, I've often thought: Perhaps we have it reversed, we should cry when someone is born, and rejoice when they die. Until I am told differently, this date in time, still leaves my heart, and those of my family, sad. God Bless you Jason, and your family. The Emanuelson and French Families."
Karie Emanuelson of Ramona, Ca. USA

"Jason,

I can't believe that today marks 6 years since we lost you. You are still such an important part of my life and I think about you everyday. You have always been my Guardian Angel and I still feel you with me, even now. There is nobody in this world that could ever hold a candle to what we had, And nobody could ever live up to what a great husband you were. You touched so many lives, in so many great ways, and I don't think you even knew it while you were alive. There are so many people who love you more than anything.

Your name lives on with my family. A year, to the day, after you were buried; my brother and his wife had a daughter who carries your name. Katelyn Chappell Davis is your name sake and she will forever have the greatest name anyone could have! I know you sent her to us, and her and I have a bond that will never be broken. You are the greatest man I have ever known and I love you more than I could ever explain in words. I hope that I have honored your memory over these past 6 years and I will continue to strive to show you the upmost respect you deserve for the rest of my life.

I thank God everyday for the time I got to spend with you. It was the most wonderful time of my life, and I cherish all of our memories. I am just so lucky to have had you, and I can never Thank you enough for making me who I am today. Without you, I would have never known what true love was and I'm so grateful for knowing what it is now. I love you SO MUCH and I miss you even more. I can't wait for the day that I get to see you again in Heaven.

Thank you for being my Angel!"
Stephanie Chappell of Fort Worth TX

"I never want to forget the sacrifices of so many young men and women. I am so proud it makes me cry. I understand in theory only that war is a part of human nature but so is love and caring. I wish I could take the families pain away but I can't. I am committed to loving ALL people, myself and our environment. I am committed to working on my happiness everyday because so many have died for my freedom to live my life. Thank you is not enough but it is all I have. All my love and respect. ogersteiner@yahoo.com

I am thankful for what you have done for us. True freedom is not free and I am humbled by your sacrifice to ensure that our families can live a peaceable life here in the U.S.A. God Bless You and your whole family. :)"
Steve of Norwalk, CA

"Jason,
In High School I always asked for your help when I didn't understand something. You always told me to stop paying so much attention to playing football and listen during class. I just found out about your passing today when I saw your picture in the Mail Depot.....I choked up and got in my truck and just sat there for what seemed for ever. You were a great man and you gave your life for my freedom and I will always honor and remember you. My prayers are with your family....by the way I gave my life to Christ. Jason you know what I'm talking about."
Josh Darling of Hemet, CA

"Jason just wanted to say hello and miss you and the others alot. I just got back from Iraq and there wasn't a day that didn't go by that I wasn't thinking of you. Just wanted to let you know that I miss you alot. Take care and Love You. You are my hero. God Bless."
SFC Stephenson, Robert of Ft. Hood, Texas

"I too heard you on the Dennis Prager show and wanted to tell you that so many people pray for your family, God bless you all."
Wilma of Winter Pk, Fl

"I, too, heard about the death of your son on Dennis Prager's wonderful radio show. He sounded like a wonderful young man who, rest assured, is in a much better place. I'm sure your son looked down yesterday and admired what you communicated about him on national radio.

My thoughts and prayers are with you on your loss. God bless you."
John Cannon of Chesterfield, Missouri

"Dear Mr. Chappell - I heard you honor your son on Dennis Prager yesterday (Memorial Day), and was delighted to know I will get to meet Jason in Heaven. I was particularly pleased to hear that Jason liked to encourage others to consider Jesus. I and my children do too.

I have been a follower of Christ since I was 19 and I am now 73 with a bad heart, so I will see Jason before long and as I said above - it will be a joy.

Your friend and brother in the Lamb, Scott Neville

"Happy Valentine's Day - I will never forget the perfect Valentine's Day you and I shared. You were so perfect in so many ways and there isn't a day that goes by that I don't wish I was with you again. We all still love you very much.

To those who have left messages, Thank You from the bottom of my heart. When Jason passed away, I lost everything that ever meant anything to me. For those who didn't get the chance to know Jason, he was the most wonderful person to know. He always had a kind word, was willing to give the shirt off his back for ANYONE - whether he knew you or not. He blessed my life then, and continues to even today. He is truly an Angel and I will be forever grateful that I got the 17 months I had with him, no matter how short, I was blessed."
Stephanie Chappell of Fort Worth, Texas

"Hey Bro, I was thinking about you and I want you to know the only thing I wish for on my Birthday was that you came home safe but that did not happen and I was mad cause that was all I wanted but now I realized that you are at home now and I know you will be waiting for me at the golden gate when its my time."
YOUR SIS Lisa of hemet

"Hey Chappell what's up buddy? It's been a few years now since you past, and I think about you all the time. Believe it or not I got married. I know I always said I wasn't; go figure. I remember talking with you in the motor pool all the time about how you were going to get back and build the fastest computer in Killeen. You're the only grunt I know that wanted to spend their money on anything like that,lol. Oh by the way...I'm a grunt now myself. Once again go figure. Well buddy you are missed very much and I will see you on the other side."
Spc. Christopher Duke of Georgia

"Hello Jason. We are back here at Ft Hood. The 1st Cav Memorial is very nice. SFC Hicks is the first name on the wall, then follows yours, Sturges and Rosenbergs names. It is very humbling. There is also a memorial chow hall with your names on the wall as well. Rob got choked up the first time he went in. We still miss you and think of you daily. Rob has a bracelet in memory of you that he wears, and will wear when he deploys again soon."

"To Jason's family - as Memorial Day is here, those who lost their lives are officially remembered once more. I want you to know that not only on this day but many, many times throughout the year Jason comes to mind. I think often of him and his great sacrifice for the cause of freedom. You all are in my thoughts and prayers. Thank you for YOUR sacrifice. To say 'thank you' is simply not enough. May the Lord convey his goodness and kindness to you all in a very special way this weekend. Jason is not forgotten."
Doreen of Oregon

"Jason,
The Word says the ultimate sacrifice is to lay down your life for someone else. You did that. When I think of all the things you missed, having kids, a home, a career, all the sunsets... You gave it all. Thank you."

"Hey Jason, its Rob and Kim-
We were just telling the story about how you and Steph met-you know, when you wouldn't get your butt off the couch to help us move so you could go meet her, and we told you if you would help out a little, we could leave faster. It just didn't work because you could not keep your head straight and were breaking too many things. We told you to have another coke(you did drink a whole 12 pack in a matter of 2 hours) and sit down so we would have some furniture left. HAHAHA!! You were so nervous and then afterwards told us she was the one. Who knew it would be true and so short lived. We miss you dude. Keep a watch out and tell Sturges and Rosenberg hello."

WE LOVE U SO MUCH AND MISS YOU SO MUCH

ASHLEY STEADWARD of Downey CA

"To the family of Jason - I want you to know that prayers were said for you this recent Memorial Day. I was shopping in a local grocery store on Memorial Day and an announcement came on the loudspeaker. "May I have your attention please. Winco Employees. Winco Shoppers. Ladies and Gentlemen... On behalf of Winco Management we ask that you join us in 30 seconds of silence in honor of this Memorial Day. 30 seconds of silence to remember and pray for those heroes who gave their all for this wonderful country." At that time the place fell absolutely silent. People bowed their heads and tears fell. Mothers held their children. Cash registers were silent. No one talked. Just silence. And remembering. After what seemed like far more than 30 seconds went by the mans voice came back on to say "Thank you for honoring those who have sacrificed so much for us and may we always remember them." I want you to know that during that silent time I thought of your dear Jason and thanked God again for his sacrifice. I want to thank YOU again for your great sacrifice and know that Jason is not forgotten. When I get to heaven I'm going to give him a great big hug and thank him in person. Until then - thank you - and God bless you!
Hugs from a new "Navy Mom" and a friend."
Doreen Laughlin of Tigard, OR

"The soldier stood and faced God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining,
Just as brightly as his brass.

"Step forward now, you soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"

The soldier squared his shoulders and said,
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't.
Because those of us who carry guns,
Can't always be a saint.

I've had to work most Sundays,
And at times my talk was tough.
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.

But, I never took a penny,
That wasn't mine to keep...
Though I worked a lot of overtime,
When the bills got just too steep.

And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear.
And sometimes, God, forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.

I know I don't deserve a place,
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around,
Except to calm their fears.

If you've a place for me here, Lord,
It needn't be so grand.
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand."

There was a silence all around the throne,
Where the saints had often trod.
As the soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.

"Step forward now, you soldier,
You've borne your burdens well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."""
HEADHUNTERS of Fort Hood, TX

"I met your parents while visiting my relatives last month. It had been over ten years since they had seen me. I spent the last five overseas in beaches without water. My cousin had invited my wife and me to Applebee’s for a drink so we could catch up on our histories. Your mother stopped me as I was leaving and asked me if I was military. I didn't think it was that obvious but she said she could tell. Your father and mother showered me with thanks and affection for the minor sacrifices I have made in my life. They called me your brother and treated me like a son for a brief moment. Then they showed me your photo and I felt my heart sink. You where my age. You probably went through the same things in your life at the same time that I have. I have spent all this time angry for losing my brothers, mad at the chain of command for not making decisions. I was so frustrated at the most insignificant things. Yet your family lost you and their faith increased, their will solidified. They became the greatest of patriots. You probably never thought your life would have such an impact. But you have a legacy now. Your family’s love is pouring out to your brothers and arms, keeping our motives pure and minds focused. God bless you and all who love you. I promise I will do everything I can to keep your family safe while my heart still beats."
Master at Arms 2nd Class David A. Calderwood of SWFLANT MCSFCo Navy Guard Force, Kings Bay, GA

"Dear Jason, Thinking about you today and the sacrifice you made. God surely is holding you close for He said there is no greater love than a man should give his life for another. You did that Jason so that many can life in freedom and safety. Your parents and all those who loved you were blessed to have such a hero in their midst. I'm praying for your dear parents that they can feel God's comfort enveloping them daily and feel just a bit closer to seeing you again in Heaven. Where there will be no more crying and no more tears only joy and peace and gratefulness to a Loving and Caring and Soverign God."
Diane Pierce of Bellflower, California

"Today marks yet another year...
When I was shopping at Hallmark this past Christmas, I came upon a remarkable
Christmas ornament. It said: Merry Christmas from Heaven: I love you all dearly, now don't shed a tear, I'm spending my Christmas with Jesus this year. With this ornament came a little card that said the following: I still hear the songs, I still see the lights, I still feel your love on cold wintery nights. I still share your hopes and all of your cares, I'll even remind you to please say your prayers. I just want to tell you, you still make me proud, you stand head and shoulders above the crowd. Keep trying each moment to stay in His grace, I came here before you to help set your place. You don't have to be perfect all of the time, He forgives you the slip if you continue the climb. To my family and friends please be thankful today, I'm still close beside you in a new special way. I love you all dearly, now don't shed a tear, 'cause I'm spending my Christmas with Jesus this year. By John Wm. Mooney Jr. I bought one for my son, thinking that it would bring a different understanding to the loss of Jason, and somehow ease the pain,...but
no matter how eloquenty the words seemed to flow, a great loss can only be eased by the love and support we give to each other. God Bless Us All.
The Emanuelson and French Families of Hemet."

"Happy veterans day, bro."
Ruiz of Killeen, TX

"To Jason's parents.
I saw your truck when I was traveling in Hemet yesterday. I couldn't think of anything more difficult than losing a child. I wanted to stop my car and hug you. Your son is a hero and a is now an angel. I am truly sorry for your loss. God Bless all the soldiers, I will never forget their sacrifices."
Laura of Temecula CA

"I never met you, Jason, but having met your mother just an hour ago, I know that was my loss. To you, and all those who have given their lives or their health to keep us safe and free -- and to the loved ones who grieve -- you have my profound, heartfelt thanks. Your blood and tears are neither wasted nor forgotten.
Blessed be."

"I am a student at Rocky Hill High School and this week our assignment was to honor a fallen soldier. I do not look at it as if I just randomly assigned specialst Jason Chappell because I do honor and respect all the flalen soldiers. I know the lives Jason touched were better because of it. I know he had bravery and courage to go to Iraq and many should respect and honor his choice to defend us and our country. I would like to send my heart out to Jason's family and I know he is watching over you with love and compassion. I hope one day my life could be as meaningful as his and over a 1000 others have been."
Jason Zevallos of Rocky Hill, CT/ United States

"J- Sorry I didn't do this sooner....Jason was the most respectable man that I have ever had the priveledge of knowing. I looked up to him and he defined good for me at a time in my life when I felt surrounded by bad."
Sunshyne of Dallas, Texas

"To The Family Of Jason:
I want to send my deepest sorrows to all the people who love Jason. I think the biggest point made to me when I heard Jason had died is that when I had the chance I didn't take the chance to be a better and closer friend to him. I believed that there would be another time to hang out, to share bonds, but I was wrong. He was an awsome guy with a great love for God. My favorite memory of him was one night at an outing we just went on about different music we loved. We both love eighties music. It was such fun making fools of ourselves trying to sing the different songs we liked. Jason has gone home but I will always remember the sacrifice he made for us, a true hero I got to meet in person."
Sandy Andrews of Temple, TX

"Jason my Bro!...I truly am honored to have crossed paths with you. You brought a great impact on all of us with your example of Living for God and for God alone. I will never forget the everlasting joyous smile you always had. I know it was and still is the everlasting Joy that only Christ can bring. We miss you greatly!

"The righteous perish, and no one ponders it in his heart; devout men are taken away, and no one understands that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil. Those who walk uprightly enter into peace; they find rest as they lie in death."

"SPC Chappell
I thank you for my freedom. I consider you my brother because I served in Bco 1/9 w/ Rosenberg and went to basic with him. I can only imagine the beautiful heaven you are now in. But one day after while, when the role is called I know we will finally get to meet and I will thank you in person. A True American Hero."
Dusty Thomason of Oneonta, Alabama

"Dear family of Jason Chappell,
I am really sad to hear of your loss. I knew Jason for a very short time. At my church (Calvary Chapel in Downey Ca) I met Jason. I met him on a inner-city outreach, we stayed in the heart of L.A., this was way back in 1994. I remember Jason was a typical J.R. Higher. He didn't quite fit in with the other kids. He loved the christian band D.C. talk, but everybody else thought they were no good. We did many things together for the Lord. The most lasting impression was when after one of our long day's ministering, we all retired to our room. (five boys and two adults in this small room) a pillow fight started and me and the other adult beat the kids pretty good but Jason got in a few good licks. It's amazing how God will put people in your path and you will have no idea what impact you could make on them. Jason was a special person who made in impact in my life even though I knew him as a kid. Rest in Peace with the Savior Jason. We will meet again."
Piet Van Rossum of Bellflower Ca. U.S.A

"To the Chappell family,

It makes me proud to say that I have known such a great man. He is truly a man of God and a man of great faith. I hope that as he waits for us in Heaven, that we can be solaced by his loving attitude and the respect he always showed others.
I, as well as many others here in Central Texas, miss him and will always have a special place for him in our hearts.
We never said goodbye to each other, we always said "until then".

Jason...until then."

Uncle Bob & Jackie Chappell of Riverview, Fla.

"I write this message to you with a heavy heart. Jason believed. He believed in God. He was passionate about his ideals and his dreams, and loved playing his guitar. A very polite young man; very respectful, and very kind to animals. The last time I saw Jason was when he came over to introduce his lovely wife to Kevin, my son, his good friend. You were dressed in uniform, and you wore it proudly. I shake my head in disbelief, what a great loss to the world...this should never have happened. I will miss seeing your face, Jason. God give us all strength who knew and loved Jason to go on......"
