This Memorial Day 2023 I wanted to honor someone at Oak Hill Cemetary who had given their life while fighting for our freedom. Dusty's grave and beautiful memorial marker is somewhat across from my husband's and mother's graves so I visited with him and his father today, to thank them for their service and to say Im sorry that he didn't come back home to do good things here.

Hello,
We wanted you to know that we will be honoring and remembering your loved one this holiday season. We are sending Care Packages to our deployed troops in his name. Each package will carry the name, photo, service branch, rank and hometown of Dustin John "Dusty" Perrott US Army Sergeant.
We realize that this is a small tribute, but we do this with all respect and sincerity and we want you to know that it is made possible by thousands of like-minded individuals from across the American youth hockey community, their families, friends and many others who support our mission.
We will not forget. May God Bless you and keep you safe and strong.
Sincerely,
Charlie Gili & Family

Maria, thank you much for your memories and prayers. I didn't know about your experience with Dusty; however, as I read it, I recognized my son in every word you wrote. What a wonderful gift your sharing was for me. Again, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. God bless you. Susan, Dusty's mom

Dustin was a student in my English class 2001. On 9/11 he held me in a big bear hug when he saw me sobbing. For the rest of the year, he kept discipline in the class for me. He liked to sit in the front of the class, his arms crossed on his desk. He would turn around and give the 'perpetrator" a look. That's all it took, not because the other kids were scared of him but because they respected him. Even though he was only mine for nine months, he has left an indelible mark in my heart. On this anniversary of 911, my prayers are for his mother and family. God bless you.

To the family of Army Sgt. Dustin Perrott ,
I am the head football coach at Broadway High School, located in Broadway, Virginia. Each week this season, our football team will play in honor of a fallen soldier. This week, we will be playing for Dustin. Our team considers this a great honor. His acts of bravery deserve a fitting tribute. Our players will play very hard tonight and we hope to make Dustin and his family proud. I hope you find comfort knowing that Dustin's life continues to inspire others... even a small town football team in Broadway. Thanks!

Holding you all in my thoughts and prayers.
The Wind on The Downs
“I like to think of you as brown and tall,
As strong and living as you used to be,
In khaki tunic, Sam Brown belt and all,
And standing there and laughing down at me.
Because they tell me, dear, that you are dead,
Because I can no longer see your face,
You have not died, it is not true, instead
You seek adventure in some other place.
That you are round about me, I believe;
I hear you laughing as you used to do,
Yet loving all the things I think of you;
And knowing you are happy, should I grieve?
You follow and are watchful where I go.”
(Written by Marian Allen during World War l )
Two lines that I wish you to keep near your heart…….
“You seek adventure in some other place.
That you are round about me, I believe”
I did not know Dustin, but I am remembering
his service. He is my hero. !

The Other Side
i'm over on the other side
where life and death softly divide.
left my skin and bones behind
now i'm over on the other side.
can you feel me there with you?
my breath is gone but i'm not through.
loved you then and i still do
from over on the other side.
i can fly. really fly.
below the earth ... all through the sky.
tell em all i did not die.
i'm just over on the other side.
it's good here on the other side.
the sweetest songs...the bluest skies.
thank you for the tears you cried
but it's good here on the other side.
i can fly. really fly. below the earth...all through the sky.
tell em all i did not die.
i'm just over on the other side
the world is smaller than a needle's eye.
where life and death softly divide.
when you leave your skin and bones behind
i'll be waiting on the other side.
i can fly. really fly. below the earth ... all through the sky.
go tell em all i did not die.
i'm just over on the other side.

I don't pretend to know what to say or do that would bring you peace in your time of sorrow, but I will offer my heart felt condolences. I also offer you my prayers that in time the pain will easy and the memories of your HERO will carry you through each day and night. I want to thank your HERO, for his/her selfless act of becoming a member of the armed forces, his/her willingness to defend the United States of America, all that we hold sacred and for the sacrifice that will forever be etched in the memories of all those who knew him/her. Though tears can never bring him/her back, we hope that our tears express our gratitude for the sacrifice that he/she made and our sorrow at his/her passing. I believe for every fallen HERO there is a star shining brightly up above to remind us of the precious gift we were given.
Your mission on earth is complete and you are now a member of GOD’s Heavenly armed forces. Stand down brave warrior and take your rightful place in Heaven with all the HEROES who have passed before.
I made a special promise to LE RON A. WILSON (KIA on 07/06/07) on the day he was laid to rest as I touched his coffin, that I would never forget him nor would I forget those that gave their lives for our country before him, with him and after him and so when I came across www.legacy.com, I thought what a great way to keep my promise to Le Ron, so I will continue to leave tributes in each guest book until the day there is no longer the need to leave these tributes to a FALLEN HERO.
REST IN PEACE, HERO, YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!!

To the Family and Friends of this Soldier:
I will stand in grief with this soldier's family to honor him. For every fallen HERO there is a bright star that shines in the evening sky to remind us of the cherished gift we were given – even if for too short a time.
My heart breaks again as I sign yet another guest book of another courageous young soldier who gave their life so selflessly. I wish I never found myself in a position to have to sign another guestbook for the rest of my life, but I promised Brent that neither he nor any like him would be forgotten and so I will continue until the day there is no longer the need.
We lost our son SFC Brent A. Adams on 12/1/05 and it seems like yesterday. I wish so badly there were things I could say to you right now to make the pain you are feeling go away, but I know first hand there simply are no words that will bring you the comfort and peace your heart aches for. Just know that you are not alone. My heart, thoughts, and prayers are with you all as you go through this tragedy moment by moment and as you mourn this loss.
We don't know each other, will probably never meet, but will forever be united in the loss of our Heroes. We have, unfortunately joined a group none of us wanted to join, an ever-growing group of families in this situation. May God grant you peace and strength to get through this and be able once again to smile at a memory rather than have only the tears that flow so easily now. To be so proud of your loved one and so saddened at the same time is a mix of emotions very difficult to deal with as our hearts both burst with pride and pain together.
I am sorry that I never knew your soldier personally. While they can never be replaced, neither will they ever be forgotten. You must trust that sometime, someday the loving memories you have will help to sustain you and help you go on. This courageous soldier will forever be your Angel watching over you all for the rest of your lives. It's what brings me some measure of peace and comfort and I hope it will you as well.
To his family and friends in pain, I offer this comfort: When you find yourself in that dark sorrowful place, think not only of how you will miss him, but instead recall the years, days, hours and minutes gifted to you by his presence. The one thing that cannot be taken from you is your wonderful memories that now will mean more than ever.
If you ever want to talk, I'm only an e:mail away and would love for you to tell me more about your Hero.
God Bless this soldier and family who gave all and God Bless legacy.com for setting up this site where families can so quickly share their condolences and prayers with others like themselves.

This is my dear nephew of whom I am so proud for serving his country so unselfishly. I remember a dear little boy, my sister's only son, who played hard and enjoyed time with his sister and cousins.
Dusty had two great uncles (maternal) who also gave their lives in wartime, WWII, Joseph E. and Ernest M. Curtis.
May the ultimate sacrifice of all these lives lead to the glory of God through the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ: And this is eternal life, that they should know YOU, the only true God and Jesus Christ, whom Thou hast sent. John 17:3

Dear family of Sergeant Dustin Perrott,
I am deeply saddened by the death of your loved one Dustin. I offer my most sincere condolences.
I hope you will find some comfort in knowing that countless Americans grieve with you and they greatly appreciate the ultimate sacrifice made by Dustin in the name of freedom. He died as a true American hero.
I am so sorry that I was unable to attend Dustin's burial service to honor him and pay my respects to your family.
I hope also that one day in the not to distant future, on every occasion when you think of Dustin, that PRIDE... will be your strongest emotion.
I pledge to never forget his sacrifice... and yours. Rest in peace soldier. Job well done.
My sincerest sympathies,

We can't imagine what you have been going through since being notified of the death of your young Warrior. The Military and families all over the USA and world are grieving with you and praying for you. What a very brave individual you have in your family that would give up a life for their homeland and its people so they can remain free. Your Freedom Fighter has served the Country above and beyond the call of duty, let no one ever tell you different. With the mission now completed your Warrior has been redeployed to Heaven to sit on the right hand of the Supreme Commander and Chief. The Father above has Dustin in his arms and will give him peace as well as eventually easing your pain and suffering. God speed to you and Sgt. Dustin Perrott, our HERO. We are so proud of them that are willing to sacrifice for this great Nation, THANK YOU.

Mrs.Perrott and family. I met Dusty in 2001 when he was in New Creations in RIchmond IN, and I was a counselor at the boys dorm. If there is anything I remember was his last night when we stayed late talking and we prayed for each other. It seems like yesterday!! May the Lord lift your hearts in this time, I dont have the right words but may the peace and comfort of our LORD JESUS sorround you all in the loss of this great hero.

Please hang on to your Faith and know that you will get through this.
May the precious memories of your Brave Young Soldier, remain in your heart always and give you strength through the difficult days ahead, and may Dustin Rest Safely now, in the Loving Care of God and know that he Will Never Be Forgotten.
I pray that the Peace of God will be with the Perrott family.

To the family of Dustin,my grief for the loss of you son is felt. I know what it's like to loose your child in war as my son was killed in action too. It feels that your heart has been ripped from you and you don't understand why this happened to your child. I've felt all you will feel in the coming days and weeks and though I’m not close in relation to area, but I am very close by email. I offer any support to you and your family that I can. It's with the Grace of God that I've gotten through each day and with His healing love and comfort that I've been able to once again sleep at night and not cry each day. Believe me I do know how hard it is. May God continue to heal you and your family and contact me when and if you are ever ready, even if it's to vent or cry.
