Pfc. Kristian Menchaca

God bless you and your family. Always remembered

Hello,
We realize that we are very late to express our deepest condolences, but we wanted to let your family and friends know that we will be sending Care Packages to deployed troops this month and several of these will be dedicated to your loved one. Each package will carry the name, photo and hometown of Kristian Menchaca US Army Private 1st Class.

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

Kristian, You don't know me, but I know of you. You deployed with my husband that tour. I met him only months after he returned home from that deployment. I remember the terror that plagued his life for so long after that, we have been married for over a decade and you and the others have always been a grand memory in his life. He still wears his Memoriam bracelet, with your name, Babineau and tucker across his wrist, all these years later. We spoke of you today (memorial day 2018) he...

Losing a friend isn't easy, but losing a brother has left a hot coal in my stomach for more than a decade. Not a day goes by I don't remember you man. I pray you're family has found peace from this, Lord knows I haven't. I miss you man. RIP

It's 1:13am and raining outside but I'm awake thinking about all the memories we had before you left. I guess it's because I know may will be here soon and as my best friends birthday is coming so is yours. We all use to laugh so hard together and the crazy fun nights we shared wi be some of my best memories. We always talk about you and you have always had a place in our heart. I feel like it was just yesterday that you called me to see how we were all doing never knowing that 24hrs later...

What up man? Just stopped by to say hey! Miss you homeboi! Not one day goes by and I don't think of you. I'm glad I got to know you wish you was still around so we could continue to act silly and laugh like we did daily!

To the family of this precious young many, I just needed to write to you and let you know this brave young man has not been forgotten. I am so sorry for your irreplaceable loss. As a mom who lost her 18 year old son five years ago in a car accident I know the heartbreak that lasts our lifetime when we lose a child. To lose your child as you did breaks my broken heart more. God bless you and God bless Kristian.
