Not sure what to say?

Nick, It's been a while. I still have a hard time dealing with your death. I have gotten better in the past few years but I still struggle. I was thinking about you today and thought I would check in. I miss you, we all miss you. There isn't a day goes by that I don't think about you. You will live forever in my memory.

I am very sorry for your loss. As a soldier, I know the risks but you never expect it to happen. As an old soldier I often say I would have traded places so that this young man would live. Rest in peace Warrior, you served your country with honor and distinction.

A True Warrior

How will you be labeled
When God does come to call
Will you slink and cower
Or proudly stand up tall

Did you make a difference
Or maybe simply try
Did you volunteer
Or let chance slip on by

These are the things we ponder
When service is our call
How will we be remembered
If we are lost or fall

All who wear the uniform
Know how this does feel
We simply do our very best
And hold to our ideals

SGT Nicholas Ray...

Nick, I can still remember every detail of your funeral that I attended and how you were so loved. I think now with your birthday coming up how much your mom loves and misses her number one son. Please continue to watch over your mom and her know you are close by. May you Rest In Peace and know you will never be forgotten.

RIP. Your mom loves you so very much.

Hi Nick although we have never met through your Mom I have gotten to know you and think of you as family. You will always have a special place in my heart. I thank you for your ultimate sacrifice to keep our country safe. I know one day we will meet and look forward to that. You are loved and missed dearly which you know I'm sure. You watch over your family from above and we will try to do the same for your family from here. God Bless
