My name is Shelly Singletary (USMC), I personally did not know corporal Andrew Giliette. But just like Corporal Giliette, I am a veteran of the US Arm Forces. We expect to be in harms way abroad but, not expecting to face enemies within our borders. Or shall I say, not american born enemies within american borders. I will always hurt for my brothers, sisters and their families regardles race, creed and color of skin. R.I.P Corpoal Giliette!!!!!

Avenue of the Fallen
Standing at attention in their class “A“uniforms, badges gleaming and shoes like glass, are your brothers and sisters of Law Enforcement. All of whom have previously paid the ultimate price.
Today, like many others, they welcome you to this wonderful place.
As you march down the Avenue of the Fallen, all eyes focus on you as if to say “it’s OK, you’re with your eternal partners.”
A salute is followed and a tear can be seen on so many faces.
Welcome, you served well.
Now come join us in the ranks, another is coming home.

Corporal Gillette, you served for many years unselfishly and devotedly so that others may be safe. Our Lord, who sees and knows everything, will reward you abundantly. Your son will grow up without a father but he would know that his dad was a hero. May He immerse you and your loved ones in His Divine Mercy. Rest in peace, good and faithful servant.
