Hello,
We realize that we are very late to express our deepest condolences, but we wanted to let your family and friends know that we will be sending Care Packages to deployed troops this month and several of these will be dedicated to your loved one. Each package will carry the name, photo and hometown of James E. Dutton US Army Sergeant.
We realize that this is a small tribute, but we do this with all respect and sincerity and we want you to know that it is made possible by thousands of like-minded individuals from across the American youth hockey community, their families and friends and others who support our mission.
We will not forget. May God Bless you and keep you safe and strong.
Sincerely,
Charlie Gili & Family

You would do whatever you could to make people laugh. If there was any humor in a situation you would find it, if not you'd create it. Never forgotten.

I knew my nephew through pictures since his birth. I am sorry to say I never physically met him. My loss! My heart goes out to you James K.,( my brother), and your family. The pain I feel is all to familar as I lost my own daughter just a few short years ago. James was a son to be Proud of by both his family and His Country. My sorrow is immense and James will always be known in my family as a Fallen Son who was loved and cherished. With deepest sympathy. Your Aunt Patricia from Maryland

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 son'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. James 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.

My heart goes out to Dutton's wife and family. I worked with him at operation santa. In the brief week I knew him he touched my heart. The world is a sadder place today without him in it. He will be missed, but not forgotten.

James' life, even in death, will continue to make a difference. He will not be forgotten, not just because of his service to our Country, but because of his impact on his family and friends who will always carry a part of him with them.
It is our prayer that you are able to find comfort and solace in the midst of your grief.

Mr. and Mrs. Dutton,
Your son was an amazing person and my best friend. I was his room mate when we lived at Ft. Drum. I am so sorry for your loss. It was not his time to go, and cannot imagine what you are feeling. You are always going to be in my thoughts and prayers.
I will always remember the times we had. We spent more time together than any friends I know. I miss you more than words can explain, a part of me is gone and will never be replaced. You will always be remembered.

The Final Salute
“Brothers in Arms”, Military men and women down through the centuries, have traditionally exchanged “Hand Salutes” as a sign of recognition and as a way to render courtesy and respect one to another.
This “Hand Salute” is the last that we shall render to SPC James E. Dutton our Brother-in-Arms. To his family it symbolizes the love and respect that we have for James. And to James it is rendered as a symbol of honor and gratitude to thank him for the supreme sacrifice he made for his country while opposing enemy forces in Afghanistan. No greater love is shown than a man lay down his life for another. James, you gave the last full measure of devotion for what you believed in and fought for. You are a brave American Warrior, a true Patriot and a national Hero. With your passing, our Country has lost a National Treasure. We bid you a sad farewell. You will be dearly missed from among our ranks. Be at ease. Rest in Peace.
On behalf of the 1,211 military veteran Legionnaires of Lowe-McFarlane Post 14 of the American Legion in Shreveport, Louisiana, I extend our sympathies and our condolences to James' family and loved ones.
