Not sure what to say?

I am so sad to learn of John's death. I knew him in high school. He was a wonderful, fun, and a loyal friend. My heart goes out to his family. Rest now Sweet John.

I served with John in 2/9. Thoughts and prayers... Semper fi, brother.

John didn't know well but seem real kind. You will be miss by a lot of people.

Dear Family,

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Dr. Marshall's family. We had the opportunity to meet Dr. Marshall at the VA when he performed surgery on my husband a few months ago. He had a great bedside manner, treated my husband with respect, and personally gave me a call when he was done to tell us how it went. During appointments with my husband he was always very personable and shared stories with my husband about his service and experiences as my husband was a medic when he served in the Army...

The Lord's Blessings and Peace upon the Marshall family.
