Hello,
We would like to express our deepest condolences and also let the Mersman Family and friends know that we will be sending Care Packages to troops in Afghanistan this week and we'll be dedicating several of these to your loved one. Each package will carry the name, photo and the hometown of Jeffrey S. Mersman 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. We will not forget. May God Bless you and keep you strong.
Sincerely,

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 Jeffery, but I am remembering
his service and sacrifice. 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.

Jeff was an amazing friend, and the big brother that I never had. He always called me his little cousin, even though we were only related by marriage. I remember the time when he got this huge buck, and he was so proud. He smiled and bragged about it for weeks. :).
I will miss you so much Jeff. You always had a way to make my day bright when it was at its worst, and you had the greatest hugs.
I love you, and you will always be in my heart.

To the Mersman family,
I met SGT Mersman over the summer, and helped him obtain some medical care while at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany. I have written a letter to send to you (in care of the funeral home, as I don't know your address). I will send the letter, but in the meantime, I wanted you to know how very sorry I am for the loss of this fine young man.
Shortly after I saw SGT Mersman's name in the Stars and Stripes newspaper as killed in an ambush in Afghanistan, AFN News ran a short segment about his unit serving there. Imagine what a surprise it was to see SGT Jeffery Mersman interviewed for the segment! I have contacted the editors at AFN, who provided me with the video clip via email. If you will contact me via email, I will forward to you.
My deepest regrets for the loss of this fine young man, and my sorrow is with you as you learn to live without him as a daily presence in your life.
May God Bless you all.

I had the pleasure of attending Central Heights with Jeff. We had Art Class together. Any time I was in a bad mood or down he would do anything to get me to laugh. "Just a smile isn't enough" he told me.He touched my life them words, and let me know someone cared when I thought
no one did. I am So Sorry for Your Loss!! My Prayers are with your Family. We Will Miss You Jeff!!!!!

Our deepest condolences for the loss of Jeffery. We didn't have the pleasure of meeting your brother. We want you to know that we are so very proud of him for the FREEDOM he has given us every day and the ultimate sacerfice he gave for his Country. Our grandson made it home safely and our hearts go out to every family that hasn't been so lucky, but always know from this day on Jeffery will be in our hearts and thoughts. Les stopped and watched the procession come down the highway Saturday and knew we had lost a hero but didn't know how close it had hit our family.

Please know that I personally join in your pain as I too remember the day I received the same message that my son was killed in Afghanistan by small arms fire. I am sure our sons are together now in heaven, looking down on us to see that we are getting through the days.
I have received many blessings since that fateful day in July, and I trust you will be open to see them in your lives too.
Rest in Peace Soldier!

While watching IN MEMORIAM today, we saw our son's name scroll by and then we saw your son's name scroll by. We recognized it immediately. Joe and Jeff served two tours together with the 325th. I know what you are going through and just wanted you to know that Jeff is in our hearts and prayers. Joe always spoke very highly of your son.

Jeff was the kind of man who should have lived to be 102 years old, sitting on the porch, teasing all the kids. He was a GOOD boy, with a beautiful smile, a kind heart of gold. My Dad who was a Vietnam vet adored him, and Jeff looked up to him as well. We will miss him extremely. I know he is There with Dad and John telling BIG fish stories with arms spread as far as they can reach. I pray that time and beautiful memories will heal his loved ones hearts. I was very proud that he called me Aunt Lisa everytime he called me, even if I was just an adopted one. I love you brave one, Godspeed.
November 15, 2007
I am so sory for this loss. I hope it brings some comfort to his loved ones to know how much others are praying for you. May he rest in peace. He was a wonderful man.

I have known Jeff since we were kids. He and I grew up together, as our fathers were good friends. He was part my family, though we didn't share the same blood.
My heart goes out to his wife, whom I've had the pleasure of meeting, his stepchildren, whom he always called his own, and his parents. My hear aches for his father, who gave me away at my own wedding, since my father passed the year before.
Jeff was dearly loved, and his sacrifice will not be forgotten. He died doing what he loved, I'm sure.

With the deepest regret, I have just learned of the death of Sergeant Mersman. As a Vietnam Veteran and the State Chaplain of the Georgia Society, Sons Of The American Revolution, I speak for our President, Charlie A. Newcomer, III and the more than 1,400 SAR members around the State of Georgia in humbly expressing the condolences of a grateful Society. Wrapped in the integrity of service to our nation and the inestimable values of duty, honor and country, your American hero stood on a wall of freedom for us all. This precious life, lived and lost in love of America, epitomized every attribute of patriotism the Sons Of The American Revolution hold dear. And, as Americans, we could never repay the debt we owe ..!! Nor the debt we owe you… the family of one of America's best ...!!!
November 14, 2007
There is nothing that I can say or do to take away the pain or bring you peace in your time of sorrow, but I will offer you and your family 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, a dear family friend who joined the Army with three other friends, one of whom is my son (Le Ron was killed in action on 07/06/07 at the age of 18) 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!!
I would also like to tell you about a website, http://groups.msn.com/SSPSoldierPor
traits/homepage,
where some wonderful people will make wood portraits of your fallen Hero for free for the immediate family. I became aware of this site when I wanted to do something special for Le Ron’s mother.

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.
