I lost my younger brother Monday

My thoughts and prayers go out to your family. I don't know your brother but I'm thankful to him for his sacrifice and to your family for theirs. May Gods peace that transcends all understanding comfort your family in this hardest of times.
 
Thank you all for your support. This is by far the hardest thing I have ever had to deal with. My mother is part of the military moms , comfort quilts and they are taking care of us right now and bringing us everything we could possibly need. I just don't think the reality has set in yet,I don't think it's real when I read it in the paper or hear it on the news.
 
I posted a link to this thread in the IL forum Ariana so the locals are aware. Sorry for your loss..
 
ariana... I am so sorry for your loss.. I will keep you and your family in my prayers for a while I know how hard it is to loose one of your family. I know i speak for everyone here when I say if there is anything at all we can do just ask
 
Ariana - Being part of a military family myself (army brat, dad served 101st airborne for 20 years), I am sorry for your loss. Its one of the hardest things to let a family member off to war, this only cements why it is so hard.

My thoughts and prayers are with you...
 
I saw the article on the front page of the News Gazette Tuesday, but I didn't know that it was your brother. I'm really sorry about what happened. :(

Sorry for your loss Ariana. I can't say I know how you feel because I can't relate, but my prayers and well wishes are with you and your family. May God be with you in your time of need.
 
Losing a family member is one of the worst things that could ever happen to a family... F*CKing Bush..

My DEEPEST condolences and prayers go out to YOU and YOUR FAMILY.. and may God protect those who are still waiting for their loved ones to return..

Yes that's him. I'm here with in town with my family now, and the media has been hounding us non-stop, but at least we have a rep to speak for us. Thank you all again for your thoughts and prayers.
