Stanley G. Hester

Sgt Hester worked for me when we were stationed together in Quantico, VA. I remember him being very quiet. He was a good Marine. I was sitting here today thinking about him. Rest in peace!

Today bring forward a flood of memories about Stanley, who was an exceptional young man whom I met when he was a senior at Millbrook High School. He became a Marine's Marine. Because I was one of his recruiters, I am more than haunted by his death. I last saw him at Quantico, VA, not long before his deployment. I continue to offer prayers of strength and comfort to his family and all of his fellow Marines and Sailors who made the ultimate sacrifice.

Brother, your sacrifice has not been forgotten. Rest in peace.

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the sons of God.
