I keep watching your memorial from Afghanistan. It is so clear how well these men knew you and how much they love you. I am so very proud of the man you became, and so happy that you left this world without an enemy. You were a friend to everyone and had compassion for all of God’s children, even those you did not know but served anyway. I love you and I will forever remember and appreciate your big heart and your happy smile. I miss you; everything about you.

I love your blog and reading it. It makes me cry, but not my normal cry. Your words are so loving I feel them. The love you have for Jake and the healing your words bring are embracing. I have never told you I understood or it would get better as I simply cannot imagine. I do know this, your soul is beautiful and you are doing the right thing, sharing Jake with us all. I love you Heidi Jean and will always be here for you.
