To the family of Tanner O'Leary...
LIFE...so fragile.
LOSS... so sudden.
HEART...so broken.

In the wake of such a loss, we're haunted by things we don't - and may never - understand.
Yet the solace we seek, may not come from answers.
So we look for comfort in the belief of love's everlasting
connection.

May that love lift you,

hold you close,

and give you peace.

Be strong and courageous.
Do not be terrified;
do not be discouraged,
for the Lord your
God will be with you
whereever you go.

Be strong and know that many people are praying and wishing you comfort. I hope the quilt I send for Tanner little girl and for his mother will give them comfort. This young man will never be forgotten because without him and men like him we would not have the freedom that we so take for granted. Thank you for all you do for this country and thank you for giving this country a hero a man of honor and courage.
