"Sean
This is from the professor. I wanted to let you know Jenny is O.K. and going to have a baby and is married to Jason Allen a fine man who adores her. Perhaps you met him. Jenny waited for you. She went to no social functions like the prom except with Matt. I don't know if you get email in heaven where I know you are. If you have time give me a sign you received this, it would be great. The flowers will bloom soon. I am sure you are busy being an angel. I love you a lot and always will. Your mom said mean things about Jenny to the press which were not true. But then you know. You know more than me. I know you are well and dealing with all the challenges that come your way. I love you very much. "fifty million as we say here."
I miss your face.

I am so proud of you and every soldier who stands to defend our nation and our right to speak our minds and live our beliefs.

"In Loving Memory..Its been a year..

At the rising of the sun and at its going down, We remember them.
At the blowing of the wind and in the chill of Winter, We remember them.
At the opening of buds and in the rebirth of Spring, We remember them.
At the blueness of the skies and in the warmth of Summer, We remember them.
At the rustling of leaves and the beauty of Autumn, We remember them.
At the beginning of the year and when it ends, We remember them.
As long as we live, they too will live;
for they are now a part of us, as we remember them.
Rest in Peace Dear Soldier! We will NEVER FORGET!!"

"Dear Sean,

I read that you were based in Italy, the same country I come from and that’s the reason why I have decided to write these few lines in your page.
Of course we never met, but believe me it’s as if we did.
Every day I pray our Lord on your behalf and on behalf of all the other soldiers who have made the ultimate sacrifice to make this world a better place.
I pray our Lord to give me the same courage and the same generosity that has given you. And, although I am still young, I pray our Lord to give me the priviledge of being for ever together with you and all the other heroes when my earthly life will come to an end.

Sean, I thank you for giving us so much.
And to Sean’s family I would like to say that if they think I could in any way contribute to Sean’s memory, I would consider it to be a priviledge."
Stefano of Milan, Italy
