    I am sure your family doesn’t know me, but whenever I see a young person willing to serve his/her country and then giving that ultimate sacrifice, I have to say ‘God bless you for your service and may you rest in eternal peace.”

    I’m so sorry to hear about Drake’s passing. I had him as a student in Third Grade. He was very kind, helpful, and willing to share his smile. RIP forever, never forgotten.
