"To the family of Sgt. first class Hartman my name is Spc. Ganger. I was his platoon. I was 18 when we went over to Iraq and he treated my like his daughter and looked at him as if he was my dad. we did this thing were we would punch each other in the shoulder and say "that's how much i care" so the more it hurt the more we cared. I love him and miss him with all of my heart and not a day has gone by that I don't think about him."

"We wanted to let David's family know that our thoughts and prayers are with you. On Memorial Day at our church, First Baptist Church Orlando, a Memorial Service was held for Fallen Heros. Everyone received a small flag with a fallen soldiers name on it, ours was David's. We took a walk of remembrance and set out our flag, one to represent every soldier that lost their life during this war. It was a very emotional and humbling sight to see all those flags and know they represented a life. We just wanted to let David's family know that he is not forgotten. We're sorry we never got the chance to meet him, and we just wanted to thank the family of a brave man who sacrificed his life for our freedom. We will never forget.
We still have David's flag and would love to send it your family along with pictures from that special day.
Thanks & God Bless! The Blackwell's - sheilablackwell@fbcorlando.org"
