Not sure what to say?

His mother cannot be there in life, but she is there in spirit. She has us at her bedside with her at this time. She is at peace. Rhonda Reed, RN Heartland Hospice and Rupert (mine and Wy's dog) and Judy Kitner, Heartland Hospice.

Dwayne or "Zack" was a awesome partner while in bootcamp. He helped me through my training. There are no words to describe how I am feeling at this time. In keeping with tradition and honoring Dwayne... The words and sound of TAPS are appropriate. I share this story and sound of Taps with Dwayne's family.
TAPS
We have all heard the haunting melody of Taps. It’s the song that gives us that lump in our throats and usually tears in our eyes. But do you know the story behind the song?...

To my best friend Wy, You know I truely love you with all my heart, body, and soul. Believe it or not I'm at a loss of words,but times like this I don't know of any to make it better, or take the pain away, which I wish I could do, but my dear Wy, you know how I feel I pray for you, and pray that is enough. With all my love, Your RutRoe.

To Zack's family:
You raised a great man and we will always miss him. You will be in our prayers.

Dwayne was a fellow soldier and my friend. He valued life and spoke alot about his family and the adventures they took. One day as we were playing cards He told me about the story of the Deck of Cards and it went like this:

During the North African campaign a bunch of soldier boys had been on a long hike and they arrived in a little town called Casino. The next morning being Sunday, several of the boys went to church. A Sergeant commanded the boys in church and after the chaplain...

Thank you to all who have honored my son with kind words and remembrances. I was honored to have G-d allow him in my life for a short time and the Father saw fit to take him back home. Life is not clear-cut, and neither are the answers we seek especially at this time, I have asked the Lord to grant all of us patience and openness to pursue the truth rather than spend time looking for justification of our own ideas. This is how my son would have handled it. I know that I will see him...

My deepest sympathy to Wyvondia and her son. It's such an honor just to know people of faith like you.
"They will never again be hungry,
they will never again be thirsty,
the sun will not beat down on them,
nor will any burning heat.
For the Lamb at the center of the throne
will shepherd them, will lead them
to springs of living water,
and G-d will wipe every tear from their eyes." Rev. 7:16-17

I would like to exstend my heart felt sympathy to the Havoc-Solomon-Thompson family. It has been my honor to stand with this family in ministry and in missions. "Zack" was always a strong leader who had a heart of gold. He stood proudly by his Mother "Wy" and always gave 100% of himself. I wish to leave you with the words that stand for the flag that Zack lay under:

The Folding of the Flag
Wait for the Honor Guard or Flag Detail to unravel and fold the flag into a...

"Zack" was my Brother, my best friend, and my spiritual advisor. I know he is resting with our Father in heaven and the one he allowed to adopt us on this earth. He was strong in faith and traditions and he new that G-d had a purpose for everything that went on in this world. He was MY BEST FRIEND. And We will truely miss him. For all of those who have taken our Moms hand during this time I say Thank you from both Zack and Myself. My brother died as he lived, doing what he believed in....
