Not sure what to say?

I am part of an organization, wear blue: run to remember, that honors the service and sacrifice of the American military. I ran for BJ today.

Hello,
We realize that we are very late to express our deepest condolences, but we wanted to let your family and friends know that we will be sending Care Packages to deployed troops this holiday season and several of these will be dedicated to your loved one. Each package will carry the name, photo and Benjamin J. Garrison US Army Specialist.

We realize that this is a small tribute, but we do this with all respect and sincerity and we want you to know that it is made possible...

Thank you sir for your sacrifice. Today I rode in a memorial and was lucky enough to get you. Was an honor. Thank you

Edwin & Martha,

On this Memorial Day 2017, I am once again offering you my condolences on the loss of your son Benjamin. I think about Benjamin along with all the other veterans who gave up their life. It is somewhat comforting to know he is not forgotten, especially on Memorial Day.

May Ben and all veterans rest in peace.

Jesus M. Castillo (Vietnam veteran) and wife Christine

As your Brigade Chaplain I visited you after your untimely death. Your handsome, peaceful face remains a most precious memory to me as I try to live up to your honorable and selfless service in my Army retirement and ministry to your brothers-in-arms at San Antonio's VA hospital. You made the ultimate Climb to Glory, so enjoy your eternal rest and reward. I pray for your family now to feel God's peace. - Roger Rahill

My daughter is #8, she wore a uniform jersey with SPC Garrison name on it, honoring his service to our country.

6 years ago, your life was taken tragically by the enemy. Though Garrison may be gone, his memories and impact on others will always live on through us. I still remember the good times we had like it were yesterday.

Seven years ago this month you decided to join the military. We shall always be grateful for your service and sacrifice.

Garrison's memory lives on with those who served with him and those who knew him in life. He left an everlasting impact on me that will never be forgotten. I miss the times that we would hide mousetraps on each others cots, and even though it hurt like hell when it hit us, we thought it was a blast.

He was among my best friends and my brother in arms. He never once complained about fighting a war on the behalf of ungrateful people and had a very good nature to him.

RIP Garrison.
