Bow my Head
Seems that I have barely raised my head, lifted myself from my knees and wiped the tears from my eyes!! When it has happened again. Once more a Brother Warrior has been called to the Lords side, leaving us sorrowed beyond compare... a heaviness in my heart and an emptiness in my soul! Another loss to sustain, another family bearing the sorrow all the while struggling to understand why. But as Warriors we all know the why. For without us to SERVE, PROTECT AND TO MAKE THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE,,, there would be no innocence, no children playing in the parks, lovers holding hands as they gazed at the future! Without the WARRIORS, there would be no civilization no future for our children. Though we are underappreciated, never understood and always seen by the public as an unnecessary need, We Serve and Sacrifice! So who cries for the Fallen Warriors when the time comes to answer the Lords calling? We all cry, we all must bare the sorrow. We all must Honor the Fallen Warrior!! May the LORD hold our Fallen Brother in his ever warm embrace, May the Lord hold his Family and Loved Ones and grant them Peace and Strength in this Sorrowful Time. I once more kneel; bow my head in prayers to my fallen Brother. This time has been so sad, so many brothers leaving to the Lords side. I wipe the tears from my eyes, take a deep breath to steady my wavering heart and Honor my Brother!!! Peace and Love to you, My Brother and to your family.

I remember your first day of work. You were so proud of your new job as you walked out the door in your black pants and boots not having a clue what to expect. You gave the ultimate sacrifice for this job. Never did I expect that but I did expect that you would give 110% of yourself as you always have in everything you did. I am proud to say you are the father of my 3 children. You have shown them how to hold their heads up high, honor what they believe in and never back down from anything they set their minds to. I pray that you are resting peacfully somewhere beautiful where you can watch our children grow or at least hear them as they tell you their thoughts and stories. You are their hero! Rest in peace Ryan. You will always live on in our hearts. <3 <3 <3 <3
