Bob, Peggy, Colleen and family, I am so sorry for your loss. The military funeral was moving, and I thought Jake did a wonderful job when he spoke.
My prayers are with you all. I was glad that Bob saw my small tribute to Jeremy on my blog. He asked that I pray that God will use his memory mightly to restore people to faith and restore them to a love for this constitutional republic. Be assured that I will be praying for this.
May God bless and comfort you!
Love,

Sounds like Jeremy was a fabulous man in every way! We've been on the road a bunch, and just found out today. Our hearts are aching with you. We heard you are all really trusting the Lord in this tough time. He truly does care for you and will be there to help with every hard moment. (I Peter 5:7)
We love you all.

I just want you both to know that your husband/dad gave the greatest sacrifice any person could make to protect all americans. I want you to know I am very grateful for his sacrifice and you are all in my prayers. May the Lord be with you all, during your times of sorrow in missing Jeremy. You will all be in my prayers. God Bless the USA!! Thank you Jeremy for EVERYTHING, and thanks to his family for helping him to be the man he was.

I want to tell you how sorry I am for the loss of your precious son. Words such as Hero, sacrifice, patriot are correct. But as a mother who is facing the first anniversary of the loss of my son in Afganistan, I understand the pain you are suffering. I lost my son, SSG Shaun M. Mittler July 10,2010 and there is not a day that goes by that I wish with all my heart he was still here. Your son's photo is beautiful and I know how very much you miss him. From one mother to another I am so very, very sorry for your loss. They will forever be our little boys.

I am very sorry to hear of your family's loss. I can’t imagine the pain you are feeling at this very moment. I only knew Jeremy briefly, while he was a part of the CMSU ROTC BN; however, I'm certain he was just as much-if not much more- of an respectable and amazing person than he was then.
My family's condolences are with you, as well as our prayers for God's love, mercy, understanding and peace to surround each of you and bring you some comfort in this difficult time.
June 27, 2011

Those Katzenberger boys, they were a handful! Bob and Peggy sure raised them right. With the grace of God and Love. Every one of them are upstanding men. Jeremy knew his job and was great at it. His wife, Colleen knew her job of supporting him and is great at it.
Jeremy was as proud a father and husband as he was a courageous soldier. He was a very loving and kind man and his presence in our family will be forever missed.

The Final Salute
“Brothers in Arms”, Military men and women down through the centuries, have traditionally exchanged “Hand Salutes” as a sign of recognition and as a way to render courtesy and respect one to another.
This “Hand Salute” is the last that we shall render to S/Sgt. Jeremy A. Katzenberger our Brother-in-Arms . To his family it symbolizes the love and respect that we have for Jeremy. And to Jeremy it is rendered as a symbol of honor and gratitude to thank him for the ultimate sacrifice he made for his country while opposing enemy forces in Afghanistan. No greater love is shown than a man lay down his life for another. Jeremy, you are a brave American Warrior, a true Patriot and a national Hero. With your passing, our Country has lost a National Treasure. We bid you a sad farewell. You will be dearly missed from among our ranks. Be at ease. Rest in Peace.
On behalf of the 1,307 military Legionnaire Veterans of Lowe-McFarlane Post 14 of the American Legion in Shreveport, Louisiana, I extend our sympathies and our condolences to Jeremy’s family and loved ones.

To give one's life for another is noble indeed. never the less when we lose someone no matter how noble the cause a hole is left in one's heart. Please take comfort knowing that God has promised a time when our sons and daughters will not have to give their lives for the sake of freedom. (Isaiah 2:4) . . .And he will certainly render judgment among the nations and set matters straight respecting many peoples. And they will have to beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning shears. Nation will not lift up sword against nation, neither will they learn war anymore. . .

Dear Katzenberger Family,
For you every single soldier
Those who served so honorable
Your life was forever altered
While I’m home safe and free
I stand with grateful admiration
I stand respectful and so proud
I know I’m only a civilian
And I don’t even know if it’s allowed
But I salute you; allow me the honor
to salute you with permission let me say
Even though I hold no rank know that from my heart
My humble gratitude comes from the deepest part.
I salute you.
For those missing in action;
for those who didn’t make it home.
I know you’re in God’s presence you are not alone.
For every neatly folded flag;
for every shattered family
I will do the only thing I know to dignify your memory.
I salute you, allow me the honor
to salute you with permission let me say
even though I hold no rank know that from my heart
my humble gratitude comes from the deepest part.
I salute you .
I Salute You.
