Fallen Heroes of Operation Iraqi Freedom

""From one Air Force family to another, Just know your son and your family will be in our thoughts forever.
My son is in Basic Training right now. We leave for graduation in the middle of August. When I watch the Airmen's Run on the first morning, I will think of your boy. A fallen Hero.

"Hi Brad,
You were a great friend to Ken and it means so much to both of us that you and your family were the only witnesses to the eternal union between Ken and I, your names will forever be cherished on our marriage certificate.

To Rebecca:

I can only hold you

I can't tell you I feel your pain,
But I can hold you when you cry.
I can't give you a reason for your grief,
But I can hold you when you ask me why.

I can't offer you condolences
When I haven't suffered your pain.
I can only offer you the words of my truth,
When your blue skies begin to rain.

I can tell you 'time heals all wounds',
Although that's certainly a lie;
It isn't time that heals our wounds
It's giving love and forgiveness another try.

I can only offer you my embrace
As a small moment of refuge.
I wish I could take it all away...
But I can only hold you."
Amber Roads of Colorado Springs, Colorado

"Brad, We were best friends when we were kids, had alot of fun. You died doing a honorable thing, most of us won't. You deserved better. I know your children will miss you, I'll check in on them as I can. I miss you, pal. For those of you that don't know Brad could have retired out of the Airforce in a year. You were always a good friend Brad and the world is a darker place now that you have gone.

Rest well my friend."
