Julian Andrew Ortiz

Thank you all for your kind words. My wife and I, Julian's mother appreciate your words of encouragement for our family during our difficult time. I taught Julian to love America and he did. Again thank you from the bottom of my broken heart.Julian's Dad Edward Ortiz Sr

Julian was a hero and I am grateful for his service. I am sorry for your loss and pray that the peace of God's love will comfort you now. I did not know Julian but read his story and wanted you to know that many people care

Dear Ortiz Family,
I've seen many Marines , and Juan's portrait speaks volume to me and alot of other hard charging Marines. Very special young man and may His(Juans') Spirit comfort you for the rest of your lives. Words are all I have for now ,and I assure you many ,many Marines are with you in spirit.

We send you thoughts of peace, courage, and strength. Julian will be missed forever by his family, friends but especially his Brothers in Arms. We thank him for his brave service to our country & the support and love shared with those who served along side him. May he rest in peace. Please accept our deepest sympathies.

Strength, sympathy and prayers to the Ortiz family. I was very saddened to hear about the loss of Julian. Thank you for your son's service to our country! Julian, Cody and Tyler reminded me of the three musketeers as they finished up high school at Stratford and prepared to enter the service. Forever in those red USMC "T" shirts. They ran the Cooper River Bridge Run that last year of high school. They were highly motivated and I was so proud watching them make that turn from boys to men....
