"You were an amazing Marine, and a good friend. I will always hold that last day I spoke with you in my heart brother. Semper Fi. Until we meet again"
Cpl. Brandon Davis of Lincoln, Nebraska

"I can't believe that it has been over 5 years since we laid you to rest in Arlington brother. I still remember the day we met and you introduced me as your brother, even before our parents were married. You knew then as I did that although we weren't blood, we were brothers nonetheless. I miss you now as I did then, and I named my son after you, my hero. I love you man, and I hope that the universe brings us together again somehow when my time is up. See you then."

"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

"To Adam, thank you for your heroism and giving your all to protect our country. you are truly a hero in every sense of the word"

"The soldiers do not speak. Nevertheless, they are heard in the still houses: who has not heard them? They have a silence that speaks for them at night and when the clock counts. They say: We are young. We have died. Remember us. They say: We have done what we could but until it is finished it is not done. They say: We have given our lives but until it is finished no one can know what our lives gave. They say: Our deaths are not ours: they are yours they will mean what you make them. They say: Weather our lives and our deaths are for peace and a new hope or for nothing we cannot say: it is you who must say this. They say: We leave you our deaths. Give them their meaning. We were young. they say. We have died. Remember us:"
William Taylor of Bonita Springs, Fl.

"I still think of you frequently. I did not know you- but when I heard of your tragic passing I was struck deeply.
Adam, please rest in peace and know you are remembered."

"I met Adam at Forward Operating Base (FOB) Ramadi, Iraq. We instantly clicked, once we found out we were both from Ft Lauderdale, Fl. To his parents you did a great job raising a son like Adam. He was a loyal friend and an outstanding Marine. To Adam I will never forget the day you were called to your home in heaven, rest well my friend.
Semper Fidelis"

"Two Time to Iraq me and you...and i was lucky enough to come back...i wish that we had more time...but the time we did have was great!! go Dolphins, kicking it in Miami and driving phat lowered and go fast imports!! haha..."
Sgt. Ricky Nguyenkien of Oldsmar, FL

"Sgt, we've never met before. I am in the Navy serving honorably as a K9 handler. It is because of people like you who truly make our military the BEST in the world - to give up your life - not by choice - but by a rogue prick strapped with a cowardly device to kill, but by your courage and unwavering comittment to your country, family and friends. The stories I've read about you are both heartwarming and heartbreaking. I can't imagine how your family is coping with you not being around, but I wish them well and am deeply sorry for their loss of you. Thank you for everything that you've done. (Never forgotten) Rest in Peace, Marine. In Canes Confiderus. K. Ellison, MA2, USN K9"
