I am grateful for the life of SFC (Ret.) Vertz. Thanks to his service and to the service of others in our armed forces, my family and I have been able to lead our lives in freedom and peace.

Dear Joyce, I am truly sorry to hear of Richard falling asleep in death. May he sleep peacefully until Jesus calls him to be resurrected and to rejoin family and friends (Jo 3:16). Please accept my condolences. Andrew
