My deepest sympathies to Agent Crowell's wife, sons, all other extended family and friends/co-workers.
On Friday morning I got up especially early to try to catch my son over the Air Force messaging portal. It was his birthday and I so miss him and wanted to be with him, in at least this way.
As we connected, he could barely let the words out, the devastation in his words tore this mother's heart apart ....for him, for the three fallen men and for all of their closest loved ones.
He stood on the tarmac that morning being a part of a very solemn and honorable send off to these men. He reports that he will never forget them, or the look of devastation and pain in their co-workers eyes, as they loaded the caskets aboard the plane to take them home. I expect my son will grow more as a human being after this morning of shock and pain and extreme sadness...on the day when he turned 26.
My son, my extended family, our church family...and friends, all grieve with you and our prayers run deeply for you as you go through this deeply painful process.
Thank you for sharing such a wonderful man, for the good of all.

Dear Family, Friends and Co-Officers of Agent Crowell,
As a survivor, each EOW notice hurts no matter who it is or where they are from. You still feel the same pain and emptiness. We are so sorry for your loss and your family will be in our prayers through this difficult time of your fresh grief. May you find a small measure of comfort in knowing there are many people who care. We don't give enough credit to the men and women who put their lives on the line so that we may feel safe at home.
