Andres Aguilar Obituary

Hello,
We would like to express our deepest condolences and also let the Aguilar Family know that we have made a small donation to the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital to honor Andres A.J.

We will not forget. May God Bless you and keep you safe and strong.

To the family of Cpl. Andres Aguilar:
Please know that just as your loved one remains in your hearts and minds; his sacrifice, and that of your family, remains with the people he died defending. Words cannot express the gratitude we feel for his bravery and selflessness, or the heartache we feel for your loss. God bless and keep you always.

Remembering Cpl. Andres Aguilar on this day as well as many others. My nephew, David, was in the truck with him that terrible day. I know the past five years have been as hard on your family as it has been on ours. I will always be grateful to Andres for the sacrifice he made for our country.

Prayer for Peace

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace;
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master,
Grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
To be understood, as to understand;
To be loved, as to love;
For it is in giving that we receive,
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

Amen

Aguilar, you were a great friend and Marine. We miss you down here man.

I wish to quote Kris Klop who so accurately said, “We can never fully repay the debt of our proud nation to those who have laid down their lives for our country. The best we can do is honor their memory; ensure that their sacrifice is not in vain. The security of our nation depends on the men and women who are willing to sacrifice their safety, and possibly their lives, to protect the freedoms the rest of us enjoy. I am humbled, honored, saddened, and proud...”

You are remembered and respected. Thank you Cpl Aguilar!

To the family of Cpl. Andres Aguilar, our thoughts and prayers are with you in your loss. What he has done for our freedom will not be forgotten. May God comfort and bless your family.

My deepest condolences to the family.May God comfort you in this time of indescribable pain and grief. Our prayers and thoughts are with you.

To the family and friends of Andres.
Holding you all in my thoughts and prayers today.

May God and His Angels surround you and bring you comfort.


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 Andres, but he is my hero.

God and Cpl Aguilar was help protecting his brothers/sisters in the 3rd Bn 3rd Marines as they are currently serving another tour of duty in Iraq. I know his brothers of this Battalion think of AJ and other fallen Hero's daily.

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!!

To All Parents
“I’ll lend you for a little time a child of Mine,” He said.
“For you to love the While he lives and mourn for when he’s dead.
It may be six or seven years, or 22 or three,
But will you, till I call him back, take care of him for me?
He’ll bring his charms to gladden you, and shall his stay be brief.
You’ll have his lovely memories as solace and relief.
“I cannot promise he will stay, since all from earth return,
But there are some lessons taught down there I want this child to learn.
I’ve looked the wide world over in my search for teachers true
And from the throngs that crowd life’s lanes I have selected you.
Now will you give him all your love, nor think the labor vain,
Nor hate Me when I come to take him back again?”
For all the joy Thy child shall bring, the risk of grief we’ll run.
We’ll shelter him with tenderness, we’ll love him while we may
And for the happiness we’ve known forever grateful stay;
But shall the angels call for him much sooner than we’ve planned.
We’ll brave the bitter grief that comes and try to understand.”

I share in your loss; Proud Mother of Petty Officer 1st Class Joseph Adam McSween EODMU-11; IKA near Kirkuk, Iraq on 04-06-07

Thank you for the sacrifice made by Cpl Aguilar and the sacrifice made by everyone who loves and misses him! May God bless all of you!!

Your Freedom Fighter has served the Country above and beyond the call of duty, let no one ever tell you different.

Dear Family and Friends,
I am so sorry to hear of this fine soldiers passing. My relatives live in Victoria and I thought that I would send my love and prayers your way. My husband is a Marine. I know the words that we say can't be at all comforting and sometimes hard to read. I can't imagine the pain, but just know he is with God now and he suffers no longer. He is the lucky one to be there in Heaven living, he is more alive then we are! God Bless you all.

My Prayers are with you with the lost of Andres. He was one of my grandson best friends in the 3/3. Cpl Aguilar will always have a place in Dustin's heart. Your son is one of my Hero and I am sure when he died, he was very proud of being a member of "America's Battalion" and they where keeping the United States of America free.

Dear Aguilar Family,

Cpl Aguilar was my best friend in Hawaii and out here in Iraq. We worked side by side as radio technicians. May God bless you and your family. Semper Fidelis.

Sgt Trinidad, Francis D.

Another Fallen Hero – I understand what you are experiencing and feeling. I know firsthand there are not words of comfort at this time. We lost our son on 9-3-2004, at the age of 19. Know that you are not alone. Just know that there are Marine families across the USA who is experiencing your loss and pain. My deepest condolences, sympathy and prayers go out to the entire family. May God grant you peace, strength and comfort?



My family and I are thankful for the Service, Courage, Bravery and Determination to fight for our country, (our freedom) from you, my son and all the others in our armed forces. I also have a Marine daughter and Marine son in law. You all will not be forgotten. You all will not be forgotten. May you rest in peace! Thank you!!!!!!

To Andres's family and friends-

My family and I are praying for you and your family during this difficult time. We send our deepest empathy as we lost our Marine on 11/30/05 in Fallujah. We are comforted to know that our Marines are serving their country with such honor and bravery. We are so proud of our Marines and all of our other service men and women for all that they have done and continue to do to keep us safe and to give us the freedom we have that so many take for granted.

They are true Heroes and need to always be remembered for their selflessness and sacrifice to better our world. We will forever be united in the loss of our heros. We are so sorry for your loss and hope our words will ease some of the pain, and maybe fill some of your emptiness.

Dear Aguilar Family,

Even though we have never met I feel as if we are a part of a "family". My daughter's fiancee was killed in Iraq by an IED on Oct. 3, 2005. It is my prayer that God will hold you close to His heart as He has held my family these past months. May you feel His comfort and peace as you go thru these difficult days.

To the Family of Cpl. Andres Aguilar:

My heart breaks again as I sign yet another guest book of another courgeous 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. We lost our son 12/1/05.

I know first hand there are no words right now that will bring you the comfort and peace you need. Just know that you are not alone. My heart, thoughts, and prayers are with you all 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. I am sorry that I never knew your soldier personally, but none of these courageous men and women will be forgotten. They will never be able to be replaced, but sometime, someday your loving memories will help to sustain you. This courageous soldier will forever now 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. 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 courageous soldier and family.
