My son was in 2nd Platoon with Elijah, Cadet Niemeyer. He said"He was a good guy" As a mom of a Cadet I can't stop thinking about Elijah. What an incredible smile he had :) Please know that he truly touched others! Our family will continue to pray for your peace. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. John 14:27

To Mom and family. I know that this is a painful time. Jesus had something very encouraging to say that can benefit us all at (John 5:21) May these words also be encouraging to you. Rejoice in that hope and his precious memories that he left behind.
