"SGT Quick, it has just been over a year now and not a single day goes by where i haven't thought about you and 19 Aug at least once. It was my absolute honor, pleasure and privilege to work with you during our time together in Germany and Ramadi. You are truly one of a kind and represent the best of what our Army and country is all about. What i wouldn't give to be able to talk to you just one more time. I miss you, and am a better person for having known you....
God bless you and your family,
SFC Olienyk"

"Quick, I think about you every day and will always remimber our talks and times together. You are my brother and always have been. I think back to the lessons you taught and the way way you carried yourself as a SOLDIER. You will always be a role model for future soldiers even the ones who never had the honor of knowing you. I will always have you by my side for guidance and will keep my eyes to the skies for your smile. I WILL SEE YOU ON THE HIGH GROUND BROTHER. Watch over us."

"Quick my man... I will never forget your giant smile, the way you tolerated running that orderly room by yourself sometimes, and us weathering those training meetings together. I will miss the jokes and the stories and the afternoon long games of Halo in the barracks with you and the rest of the boys. You were a good man and the world is less without you in it. I hope to meet you again in the next world my friend. God speed.
