You are still very much in our thoughts,Jeremy. Time has not diminished your Christian impact in our lives. I will never forget how your chaplain praised you and your faith. You are missed, but your life and death constantly remind us to do better in our walk with Christ. The ministry at SOI continues, praise God.

Jeremy, I came across a video of you singing to the boys after a patrol today. Just wanted you to know that you aren't forgotten.

Jeremy: We are still having Sunday evening services at SOI West which you faithfully attended while at SOI. Which is where we met you. We now have 300-600 Marines attending these services....and we pray they will receive Christ as you did and have Him as their Savior as you did.......you were a light in a dark place. We thank God for you and your life and inspiration.

Dear Jeremy,
I miss you and your wonderful laugh and smile. Your presence in our home and with our family, especially during mealtimes, was a blessing to all of us. Your death in Iraq was hard on the Garcia's as well as the entire church community and your fellow students at Church For All Nations, in Parkland, WA. Thomas, my son and one of your best friends in Tacoma, especially misses you. It took a while for him, and the rest of us to recover but it helped to remember your awesome...
