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 week and we'll be dedicating several of these to your loved one. Each package will carry the name, photo and the hometown of Jason I. Huffman US Army Corporal.

I know I never got to know you but we are family. On March 12 2007 I enlisted for basic as a 11B infantryman. In 2009-2010 I served in iraq at JSS McHenry the same place you were stationed, I have seen the memorial painted on the barrier there alone with the others that had fallen. I still continue to serve in your honor. 11Bs lead the way brother

I haven't seen you in so long. I gaze at your picture and try to remember the sound of your voice and that annoying little laugh of yours. You are forever in my heart even though the sounds are fading. I love you, my wonderful nephew. I only wish you were here.
Love and kisses,
Auntie Anita.....

I am the mother of a fellow soldier that deployed to Iraq with Jason in 2006, I only met him one time but he tried to put my mind at ease about my sons first deployment. I will never forget him.

Merry Christmas Jason.

today is Thursday December 15, 2011. The announcement was made this morning that today the War in Iraq is declared, "OFFICIALLY ENDED". I know you fought and believed in what you were there to do. We supported you in your endeavours while there. I m thankful for the ending of the War, I do however say that with a bittersweet heart. Iraq took something from us that we will not ever have back here on this earth. We do however have the promise and assurance from God that we WILL be together...

Missing you. Yet another year has passed and it still feels like yesterday. Fond memories and the occasional quirky jester by someone brings a smile just thinking about you. There are also those days that just a word, a sound or even a thought will still make me tear up and cry, especially this time of year. Missing and Thinking of you ALWAYS.
Love,
Aunt Sherry
