Hello,
We would like to express our deepest condolences and also let the Derenda Family know that we recently made a small donation to "Boots on the Ground" in honor of Robert V. Derenda US Army Sergeant 1st Class. We recognize that this is a humble tribute, but we wanted you to know that it is heartfelt and made possible by thousands of like-minded individuals in the youth hockey community and beyond. We will not forget. May God Bless you and keep you strong.
Sincerely,
Charlie...

As the war in Iraq comes to an end, I wanted the Derenda family to know that Robert's sacrifice is not forgotten. May you find some peace in knowing other families will not have to suffer your pain. Rest in Peace SGT. 1st Class Robert V. Derenda.
