Before he enlisted, you could always tell when Jaime Moreno was on his way home from work: The sound of Mexican music artist Adan "Chalino" Sanchez would be thumping louder and louder as his SUV neared. While in Iraq, his family sent him salsa and Mexican sweets, but he brought a lot of Mexican banda music with him that he had downloaded on his computer. It was usually Sanchez, his favorite artist. Moreno, 28, of Round Lake Beach, Ill., died Oct. 13 of injuries suffered when a bomb exploded near his patrol vehicle in Baghdad. He was based at Fort Hood. "He used to help people so much," said Moreno''s sister Maricela Repizo. "He helped people who didn''t speak English, people who needed a ride to the Mexican consulate at three or four in the morning," she said. "He never said no to anyone." After graduating high school in 1994, he worked as a cook at Red Lobster and Chili''s. He wanted to be in the military since he was 5 years old. "His dreams came true," Repizo said. "That was his dream, to be a soldier." Moreno is survived by his wife, Alma, and an 8-year-old daughter, Alexis.

In Memory of Jamie ~ (Debra Estep)

Holding you all in my thoughts and prayers.


The Wind on The Downs

“I like to think of you as brown and tall,
As strong and living as you used to be,
In khaki tunic, Sam Brown belt and all,
And standing there and laughing down at me.
Because they tell me, dear, that you are dead,
Because I can no longer see your face,
You have not died, it is not true, instead
You seek adventure in some other place.
That you are round about me, I believe;
I hear you...
