Prayer Shawls 4 Fallen Soldiers ([email protected]) is an organization with groups throughout the country who strive to send handmade prayer shawls and/ or lap robes to families who have lost a loved one in service to our country. Members of Trindle Spring Lutheran Church in Mechanicsburg, PA would like to honor your family's sacrifice and memory by sending our prayers and comfort through a shawl which we will mail to you. If you are interested, please contact me at [email protected] with the names and addresses and what they would like to receive. We will send them as soon as possible. Also, if you know of any other families who are grieving the loss of a loved one who died serving our country, please pass along my e-mail address, as our organization can no longer get family contacts through the military. May God bless you and comfort you in the days ahead. Sincerely, Lynne

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. Hunter 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 permission let me say
Even though I hold no rank know that from my heart
My humble gratitude comes from the deepest part.
I salute you.

For those missing in action;
for those who didn't make it home.
I know you're in God's presence you are not alone.
For every neatly folded flag;
for every shattered family
I will do the only thing I know to dignify your memory.

I salute you, allow me the honor
to salute you with permission let me say
even though I hold no rank know that from my heart
my humble gratitude comes from the deepest part.

I salute you .

I Salute You.

We thank you and your beloved HD Hogan for the supreme sacrifice and we know that there are no words to express what you are going through or how you are feeling. He IS a hero and will NOT be forgotten. I can tell you as a Marine mom that the Marines will be part of your family and are awesome in their support. You may find comfort in joining the Gold Star Mother's (also for family members), I know we have. I pray for you for His courage and strength and once again, thank you and L/Cpl Hogan for your sacrifice.

To the Family of LCpl. Hunter D. Hogan

I wish I had the right words to say at this time, but I know there are none. I grieve for the loss of your beloved son and I know that I cannot fathom the pain you must be feeling. Your son will not be forgotten and what he did to help protect our homeland and our freedoms. It was his life that made him a Hero. It was his noble path that made him an American Hero. It was his ultimate sacrifice that made him a Fallen Hero. May God carry him to Heaven on His precious wings and give him a palace to live in. I pray that our Heavenly Father above will grace you with His love, His comfort and His peace. Heaven's Gates now has a new handsome Marine standing guard. Amen.

Dearest Hogan Family and friends, brothers-in-arms, wounded hearts,
Those of us who are part of the 1/8
from a distance have deep ties that bind us to the Unit through love. The love we have is expressed to God through our prayers and now through our tears and grieving hearts. Our hope comes from our faith, our peace from our knowledge and relationship with God, but our sorrow comes from separation. We weep. We will never forget. We will honor for ever.
Someday we will again rejoice in the presence of our loved ones, but for now we consciously remember those moments and keep them alive within ourselves. God give you strength and the peace that passes understanding as we grieve in unison.

Thank you for raising such a fine young man and a true HERO.
