Not sure what to say?

21 years have passed and so much has changed in the world we know but the courage, honour and sacrifice of Jason Dunham is as relevant as ever. I hope that Jason's family and friends are able to continue to share their special memories of an outstanding young American.

Hello, We wanted to let you and your family and friends know that we have made a small donation to The Greater NYC Ice Hockey League (Youth Hockey Program) to honor and remember Jason Dunham US Marine Corporal. We recognize that this is a humble tribute, but we wanted you to know that it is heartfelt and made possible by thousands of like-minded individuals across the American youth hockey community and beyond. We will not forget. May God Bless you and keep you safe and...

Thank You.

Jason was a true friend, defending them against bullies. He was altruistic to the last second of his life. Years have past since his ultimate sacrifice. But I am still moved by his bravery and sacrifice. Too many stand by and tolerate evil. Not Jason. That is why I remember him each year at my synagogue in Kaddish, the Jewish prayer for the deceased.

God bless Jason and his family. Wish I had known this brave selfless young man

I have kept a picture of your beautiful son. It is attached to a picture called the invitation. It hanged on my wall for everyone who enters my home to see. It is a picture of a young man on his knees, holding out his hand to take the hand of Jesus. It welcomes him to Paradise, I feel in my heart this is Jason. I am sure, he is very special to God. I will continue to pray for Jason, and your family. Thank you Jason for your love of your fellow man.

It was a privledge to be part of the construction of this ship in Bath. I served as a Marine as well
