Wow.... I will never forget you at all sir. You were the one who pushed me through 44' school in 29 Palms. Then seeing you later on at MCRD PISC it was surreal. May you RIP sir.

I didn't know this gentleman but his photo in his Marine Corps uniform led me to give thanks for his service to our country.

Brother, I´m sorry I didn´t get to say goodbye. I´m still shocked. But the memories from DI school and 2d Battalion mean even more to me now. Roll Tide Forever, my Brother.

May my brother rest peacefully with our lord and savior. May his family only remember the joy and energy he manifested. May his fellow Marines remember along with me the distinctly powerful impact he had on us all and this nations defense.
I wish only peace and love to the family/ friends during these times.
