An Honorable Home MAN.

Thank you Adare, for your life. I know I've seen you around town and you were always an upbeat and positive individual when ever I saw you. It has been a true priveledge to have had your acquaintance. It's no wonder that you would serve to defend your country, your home.
May you rest patiently in the loving embrace of our creator till we all join you. Your kindnesses here shall not be forgotten.

Thank you.

My name is Nicole, and I am joining the Army, actually I am going through the same recruiter that Adare recruited through.... I was sad when I went into the office to talk with SSG Ford and he told me of the news.... Pfc. Cleveland has a before and after pic on the board and that was what caught my attention when I was looking at the board.

I want to say thank you for your service and I told SSG Ford that I wanted to meet you. But I will see you one day. I am standing behind you in your service.

Thank you.

Thank you and Bless You

Thank you for your sacrifice and service. It is good to see that young men and women are still willing to do what is right, nobe and just, at the risk of their own lives. It is says much for your son and yourselves that he was willing to join the military knowing he could lose his own life. There truly is no greater gift than to lay down your own life for another.

My sympathy and thanks

You have my deepest sympathy for you loss. Perhaps there will come a time when young men and women will not have to lay down their lives for peace and protection, but until then we must value our freedoms and honor those who have paid a price we cannot repay. God bless you and your family.

My Thanks

Alot of us including me forget what is really going on and the young men and women over in Iraq and what you are fighting for. Take all of the politics out of it because the soldier is not a politician. He is a patriot. I thank you for what you have done for us and what we cannot repay you for. You have paid the ultimate sacrafice. My heart aches for what you have gone through and the ultimate cost to you and your family. While we sit here safe at home and pass judgement on a war that we really have no idea what is going on over there. I will not say if it is right or wrong for you to be over there. I do beleive that you are fighting for the good of the people over there and for your brothers that fight side by side and pay the price for that. All I can say is thank you, thank you all.
