Dear Cleveland R.I.P Devil Dog.
I´ll always remember when our paths crossed during USMC training at Camp Lejeune back in 1996. The moment you saw me, you smiled and said, "Well, look who´s here." We were both relieved and proud to have made it through. That memory stays with me.

Mary - You were so wonderful to my mother, Kathryn Hines, at Manorhouse at Bellgrade when you worked there. I have never forgotten your kindness and friendship.

To the Peoples Family......

I went to Meadowbrook and graduated with Cleveland. I'm very sad to hear of this loss. He was very nice to everyone, and he had so many friends, that was rare in a class of "clicks". I hope you find peace and answers. I will keep you in my prayers.

"You are all in my prayers. Cleveland was always one of my best friends growing up. Your loss is my loss as well. But he know lives with our creator. Cleveland was always strong, smart and loving. Cleveland always stoop up for what he believed in, no matter what. He inspired me to stand up for what I believe in today. I love you Cleveland. You are my brother forever and I know you will continue to watch over the rest of the family who loves you dearly."

Cleveland, I was dearly hoping to find you safe and sound one day, buy you a steak dinner, and compliment you on your elusive ability. Unfortunately, things didn't turn out quite like we had all hoped. After meeting with so many of your family and friends, I know that they will all miss you. I will miss you as well, my friend. I wish you and your family great fortune and peace. May God bless your soul.
