Not sure what to say?

Alex, I was telling an old Army buddy about you today. I found your memorial and shared it with him. You will never be forgotten! God bless you and your family.

Miss ya Sir

Never forgotten.

Another year has passed and you are still in my thoughts almost daily. I will be coming down to visit and pay my respects to you in the morning. Thanks for your ultimate sacrifice you will never be forgotten.

My thoughts linger with you and your family this day-after Memorial Day. I and my family are forever grateful for the sacrifices made by our elite countrymen and women and their families, which afford us the freedoms so many others around the world do not enjoy. Thanks to you, there is hope that one day all people will be able to achieve their true potential through liberation and self reliance.

You will never be forgotten CPT Funkhouser! God bless the ultimate sacrifice you made for us, and prayers to the young family you left behind.

Alex,

Just a random day but still thinking and missing you brother! Thanks for what you did. The world is a little less of a place to be without you. My little one Emma Alexis, named after you, is a bit wild and crazy like you (we) were my friend. You are always in my thoughts and I wear my bracelot without exception in your honor.

Your Friend Marty
