Prayer for Peace
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace;
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master,
Grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
To be understood, as to understand;
To be loved, as to love;
For it is in giving that we receive,
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Amen

He's a hero in my book as he took a stand so very few are willing to take. He did this for us and our country! He is a true "Patriot" and will be remembered as such.
My heart,prayers and condolences go out to you and your family. May God bless you through this difficult time. No that your son will be honored for all he did for our Country. I will also not let death go with out being honored for his fight against terrorism.
May God hold you close during this time...
