Not sure what to say?

Hello,

We apologize for being so late in expressing our deepest condolences to you and your family. We want you to know that we will be sending Care Packages to deployed troops this week and several of these will be dedicated to your loved one. Each package will carry the name, photo, service branch, rank and hometown of Joshua M. Tillery US Army Chief Warrant Officer.

We realize that this is a small tribute, but we do this with all respect and sincerity and we want you to...

I'm so sorry to be reaching out under these conditions. I was doing some genealogy and "Joshua Tillery" is a common name in my family tree.

Please accept my condolences. I, too, was left a widow with young sons. My prayers are with you and your children.

we are coming up on the 6th anniversary of you four boys being taken from us. We saw the beautiful Christmas wreaths placed on the group stone marker in Arlington. They were beautiful against the snow on the ground. We all miss you and take heart in knowing we will all be together again with our Lord. Love, Mom January 19, 2016.

today I once again think of your ultimate sacrifice for all of us. Never a moment of the day passes by that I and others don't think of you. While some are still unable to cope, I know your home is in Heaven with the Lord and I take utmost comfort with that. Gone but never forgotten son, I will always love you and hold you dear to my heart. Love Mom

I recently found at that Stephanie's grandmother passed away (face book) hope you are both enjoying your life in Heaven with the rest of our loved ones. We will see you soon Son. Mom

To the family and friends of Chief Warrant Officer Joshua M. Tillery:
It has truly been my honor to sign Joshua's guest book these past few years. Unfortunately, due to complications from my Multiple Sclerosis, this may be the last message I'm able to write. Please forgive me and know that Joshua will always be remembered in my home.
With love and respect ~ Peggy

We can not believe in 2 more days it will be the 4th anniversary of your death in Iraq. We miss you daily and will never forget you, son. I love you. Mom

Happy birthday son,tomorrow on the 26th. We went to Willamette National in Portland to say hello. It was still difficult to see your stone after three years. It was raining and blustery but for just a moment it all stopped long enough for me to say a prayer for the day we will be reunited in Heaven. Love Mom and Roger. Missing you every day.
