Still remember that fateful day Earl came to our maint shop at Rest Camp to deliver the heart breaking news of your passing,
Just went through all everything I could find about you on line (Memorial Day 2019)especially those brothers in arms comments of your great character , they speak volumes . Which I know first hand from our days with 411th , still got those pictures from summer camps in Korea and Japan . And the family man who welcome me as a friend introduced me to the project Jeep , the martial
art place and slaughtering and smoking a five hundred pound pig all night! Thanks for the memories and life lessons Boodee
Till we meet again, ALOHA

Boodee, its been 16 years, since I heard of your loss. I last saw you at NTC, back in 1999/2000. I was from Det1, in AZ and you from LV unit. You were one of our best soldiers in the 257th. You lit up our world and we lost some light that terrible day in 03.
Blessings on you and your family.
Aloha, my Bruddah.

Thanks, Sarno, for the great memories of going through BNOC together, reminiscing about Hawaii, serving together in Iraq and all the midnight talks when I was missing family. Thank you for your service and sacrifice. I think about you often, you are greatly missed but not forgotten, especially on this day, every year. I wish I would have found this page sooner, I would have made more entries. Now that I know about your memorial at Red Rock I will be sure to visit. Thanks to your auntie for mentioning that for those of us that are here in Nevada.

”Honor and Remember” - “Project Compassion” We love our Soldiers! We love our country and we cannot express enough love and compassion to the families of our fallen heroes. War does not discriminate – It breaks our hearts to see the faces of the fallen. We want to give this gift to the hero’s Mother, Father and/or spouse. We are a 501c3 nonprofit organization! Over 1,850 portraits have been completed and shipped to the parents and or spouse - at no cost as this is a gift from one American to another!
This is a gift! We have some wonderful sponsors who help with the costs, and only want you know that we care.
Contact us directly at [email protected] or go to www.heropaintings.com . If you have already had a portrait completed, we pray that you are enjoying the portrait and God Bless You.
Sincerely and Respectfully,
Kenna

Boodee, aunty is getting forgetful about signing the registry but not about praying for you and all the heroes who shared the same fate.
Our family still talks about the good times with you, and they will carry those memories forever.
You're with mom and dad now so please look after them.
Until we meet again, "there will never be another Hawaiian like you".

In Memory of Cameron ~ (Debra Estep)
September 1, 2008
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 Cameron, 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.

It is difficult to know what to say since I want to express my sincere sympathy to the family and friends of Staff Sgt Sarno. Please know that your loved one is not forgotten. I wish everyone impacted by this tragic loss strength and peace. I hope that Staff Sgt Sarno knew that there are people in America who respect his great courage in serving as a member of the US military. Although I did not know him, I know that he must have been a very special person to be willing to do something that most Americans will never have to experience, and for that we can never say thank you enough.
Thank you Staff Sgt Sarno!

My heartfelt sympathy to the Sarno family in the loss of Cameron. I did not know Cameron, but my heart is broken and I am saddened for your loss of such a fine young person and hero. May God bring you peace in your heart as you reflect on all the wonderful memories you hold so close. Please know that you are in my heart and prayers. My heart was touched by the many wonderful/beautiful things written about you. Cameron it has been over 4 years since you were taken. Please know that you are my hero and you will NEVER be forgotten.
I send each of you a hug from the most inner part of my heart.
Love and Peace

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!!

Boodee, Las Vegas remembers you as our family does. Your name's on a marker at the famous Red Rock Canyon National Park in Las Vegas, and the community rallies to honor the servicemen who "gave the ultimate sacrifice". Whenever there's a national holiday, we fly the flag in your memory, especially on Sept. 1st. Uncle puts your poster out front on that day so people can see your handsome face. You are missed every day and you will remain in our heart always. We miss your stories and the way you made us laugh.....your pidgin english was a classic (I laugh so hard my face wen broke)! Love you forever, aunty nancy
