I know this is 5 months late, but I just got the word and it floored me. Dion and I not only went to school together in the Marine Corps, but we were roommates. All I can say is there another Marine guarding the streets of heaven.

Some time has passed and yet I still can't believe that Dion isn't just a phone call away. He was a great friend during a crucial time in my life. We were Corporals together, then Sergeants, then fathers, neighbors, car-poolers and co-workers. But above all, we were like brothers. I will always carry great memories of the time I spent with Dion. It was truly an honor to have known him. Rest in Peace my friend...and Semper Fidelis.

I just found out through a co-worker of mine that you died today two months after you were gone to glory. I'm so sorry God took you so soon. May God make your family strong. I will miss my friend, mentor, and Lockheed support system.
