Heart Felt Condolences

Please accept my heartfelt condolences and those of my family in the loss of your loved one Spc. Micah S. Gifford.

Every Soldier in Iraq and their families have remained in my daily prayers. While on deployment to a war zone, they are not only Paratroopers sharing a squadron/unit/battalion, but a close knit second family. They are brothers in arms.

The loss of Micah will affect many lives; many of whom you will probably never meet. Please know that he will be remembered by the many Paratroopers that stood by his side in combat, and that they will hold him in their hearts and memories for the rest of their lives.

May God and His Loving Grace be with you each day to comfort you.

With Deepest Regrets,
Linda Embry & Family
