My sincere condolences to the Roman family and all who Dana touched during his time on earth. Dana was a sweet and dedicated Soldier. We shared so many laughs while performing our military duty and especially while commuting to and from work. May the GOD we serve give everyone peace and strength to continue to run this race called life.
