That was very nice article in the Daily Oklahoman today about SSG Schad & three other fine Oklahoma Soldiers who gave their life for our nation. I was an artillery officer myself during the Vietnam era but somehow was spared the awful experience of war. I have a tribute in wood that I do for the familes of fallen heroes. No cost to the family. Please contact me if you would like furhter information about Portrait Freedom. Best Wishes and God Bless you this Memorial Day.

I know there are no words to say at this time, except how sorry that I am. My thoughts and prayers are with you always. Rex will never be forgotten.
For you every single soldier
Those who served so honorable
Your life was forever altered
While I'm home safe and free
I stand with grateful admiration
I stand respectful and so proud
I know I'm only a civilian
And I don't even know if it's allowed
But I salute you; allow me the honor
to salute you with...

Thank you for all the kind words, thoughts, support, flowers and gifts during our family's dark days.
