Brother Michael,
You took on the role of HERO the day you were born. You took on the role of protector to our great nation. You also took on the role of protector to the families you served on base and the surrounding communities.
There is not enough words to say how much I thank you for your service to our nation and your community.
I pray that God holds your family and friends close to Him in their times of need. I will pray for them every day.
Brother Michael, when my kids ask me about my Heros, I will surley show them you and all of my other brothers and sisters who have served.
God Speed Brother. HEROS LIVE FOREVER !!!!!!!!

To the family, friends, and officers that knew SSgt Watts, my thoughts and prayers are with you as you face the trying times ahead of you. Please know your not alone.
Here I am, lost in the light of the moon that comes through my window
Bathed in blue, the walls of my memory divide the thorns from the roses
It's you and the roses
Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go I will find my way when I see your eyes
Now I'm living in your afterglow
Here I am, lost in the ashes of time, but who wants tomorrow?
In between the longing to hold you again
I'm caught in your shadow, I'm losing control
My mind drifts away, we only have today
Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go I will find my way
I will sacrifice 'til the blinding day when I see your eyes
Now I'm living in your afterglow
When the veils are gone as I let you go, as I let you go
Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go I will find my way, I will sacrifice
Now I'm living in your afterglow
Bathed in blue, the walls of my memory divide the thorns from the roses
It's you who is closest
