Not sure what to say?

My condolences to the family. May you find refuge with the Most High as you deal with difficult times now and in the future. Psalms 9:9

The shadow has finally grown to full length for a truly great American. One who lived to the fullest extent and saw well beyond what most who have existed would ever experience. A man who not only helped rid the world of fanatical tyranny decades ago but a man who went on to enlighten and inspire generations of young minds. If that doesn't define a great human being, I don't know what does. Rest easy Mr. Tipper. Have a joyous eternity. I'm proud to know you existed.

My sincere condolences to the Tipper
family.

Ed, you were one of the great heroes of our country. Thank you to the people that made "Band of Brothers" come alive on the screen to show the rest of us how brave you all were. RIP soldier

Sorry for your loss. May you draw comfort from the scripture at Ecclesiastes 9 : 5 that show your loved ones a resting in peace.
