Antioch soldier killed by roadside bomb in Iraq

The Associated Press

ANTIOCH, Calif. — When John Aragon told his mother during his senior year of high school that he wanted to join the Army, she urged him to wait at least a year before making the decision.

Aragon completed a year at a community college, but the delay did nothing to diminish his passion for the military, his mother said. He called his parents once he reached Fort Campbell, Ky., to tell them all about it.

“He said, ‘I love the Army and the Army loves me,”’ Denise Aragon said. “The two just clicked.”

Aragon served for just over two years before he was killed Thursday by a roadside bomb in Iraq, the Department of...

  Inside my head, I hear you say, " you are so very strong, you can do this on your own." But it feels so wrong.~~I never got to say goodbye, that's what hurts the most. It haunts me to this very day, that you were so far away, I couldn't hold you close.~~I know that you are still close to us, I feel you in my heart, though you walk amongst the clouds, we're never far apart.~~Until the day we meet again, my arms will long to be wrapped around your loving form, where finally I'll be free.~~I try to understand why GOD chose me to endure this pain, this awful misery.~~Will I ever understand ? Will I never know why ? I can't think of a reason that you had to die.~~Sometimes these emotions are too hard to feel, but I hope they make me stronger, I hope they help me to heal.

  The pain is still here. No matter how much time goes by. As each morning approaches, I think of you and cry.--It's hard to think about what could have been. But I can't help but think about it now and then.--I think of you each and every day. I would have you here if I had my way.--But I can't change things no matter how many wishes I make. I will have to live life with constant heartache.

  John, I can't stand this pain. I just want to scream. I wish someone would wake me up from this nightmarish dream. I want to open my eyes and see you standing there. Seeing you laughing and telling all of your wonderful jokes and stories with such loving care It's never going to happen and that makes me really mad. I can't understand why GOD took you. We all and miss you so-we are so sad.

  The days are long. The nights even longer. The pain has not erased, instead it's gotten stronger.

Sometimes I am back there again, there at the funeral home on that sad, sad day enduring so much pain. I want to crawl into a hole and hide away. The pain is always there no matter what I do.

  I called you today! But I forgot you can't answer your phone anymore. I got you a rose but it died. I wrote you a letter but it flew away. I waited for you at the park but you didn't show. I went to your favorite restaurant but you didn't mkae it. I went to the cememtry and...I layed at your grave for hours hoping you would come back to me.

  I thought about you tonight and where in Heaven you might be. Is it really a better place it's too far for me to see.--Are you flying with the Angels ? Do you glide amongst the stars ? Can you see my prayers at night ? Can you see my hidden scars ?-- I'm walking in the rain, somehow it comforts me. I guess, I feel like crying when life cries next to me.--But no amount of rain could measure up the countless tears I've cried. No amount of happiness could fill the void I feel inside.--Tonight I feel like crying because there's so much I would like to say. But somewhere in my weeping soul I know I'll be okay.

  I still remember the day you died. Like a memory that never goes away. My heart is still broken John, I just wished you could have stayed.--Remember all the fun times we had and all the good times together. But now it just makes me feel so sad to think you are now gone forever.--I keep recalling your dying day, the time when we all just cried. We were never so sad as the day that you died.--A friend like you, I can't belive I found. My time with you was so special, our lives will be forever bound.--They say it was supposed to happen; that it was GOD'S wish. I just want to see you once more John, and give you a final hug and kiss.--You are a memory in my mind, and a love in my heart ! You're a memory that never goes away, and I wish your heart would re-start.--But I know it won't, no matter how much I don't want to believe it. My heart is like a jigsaw puzzle without you and the pieces just won't fit.--I know it's been over a month, nearly two in fact. You're a loving memory in my heart, and it never goes away.-- Love Wendy-- You were truly a wonderful friend.

  Shh !! Don't say a word. don't even whisper. It must remain unheard. Like a story without no beginning must remain untold. Like an object without a price cannot be sold. Keep it at a distance, it cannot be shown. It has to be kept secret, must remain unknown. For if no one finds out not even one, then maybe there's a chance GOD can undo what has already been done.--So I sit here and grieve alone, for there might be some hope if it remains unkown.

  My friend for many years. Time just disappears. Goodbye has finally came. And life is not a game.

I can't ever do this again ( lose my best friend to death's cold grip). He will forever be in my heart forever. I know, I will remember. But, I'm just sad right now. I guess it was time to go. Why, I don't know ?

  I thought I would fall over and die. Maybe it was just a lie. I couldn't believe my ears. Nothing could stop the tears. My best friend gone forever, it was a relationship I did not want to sever. All my fears have come true. Now what do I do ? He left me all alone. This war isn't something one should condone. Terroism wasn't his choice. I wish he could have used his voice. Not one word could he say to me. Why couldn't I only see ? He was my best friend after all. But I just let him fall. Now my heart is filled with sorrow. And today is just yesterday's tomorrows.

  Photographs mean everything when people leave. Maybe GOD took them away.--Maybe they were young and wasn't meant to go. Maybe a bike or car accident, or maybe even a war, its just too hard to know.--Or maybe it was his time to go. It came so unexpectedly and no one did know.--There is every kind of reason why our loved ones must leave. Sometimes they go and we so surely grieve and grieve.--But it's a sad fact that all you have left are cherished photographs.

  For the first time since you were born we lie here so lonely in our bed. Without you here the swimming and spinning of our emotions and our heads. In the house where you used to lie (sleep) and we would listen to every breath and sigh. Our hearts sink into the depth of darkness at the realization that death did depart us.--What a beautiful baby, loving child and kind man you were.

We will miss you until we get there( with you).

  I have cried a thousand times, asked why a million more, your golden heart and bright eyes, won't walk back through that door.--So many things we'll never do, words we will never speak, I've never known such emptiness, or felt so incomplete.--They say your soul flies away to Heaven when you die, I longed to chase you on that sad, sad day, and fade into the sky.--I couldn't feel a single thing, except the urge to hide, peace will never find me now, a part of me has died.--You were my soul, my everything, and now I'm on my own. I don't think I can do this, I hurt down to the bone.

  The time comes when those whom we have loved the longest and the best will travel into a place of joy and rest....And we must walk a lonely path through shadows for awhile without a certain kindred voice, a dear, familiar smile--yet each day brings us nearer to horizons yet unknown. And even when the way is dark, we never walk alone, for memories travel with us toward the happy destination where we will join our loved ones in eternal celebration.

  Have you ever truly heard an angel whisper in your ear ? Their voices are soft and comforting, letting you know that you have nothing to fear.--If

you listen very carefully you might just hear their sweet voice whispering to you of GOD'S perfect love and all the things that make you rejoice.--They do their very best to always watch over you to keep you safe and happy in everything you do.--So next time you feel lonely, kinda scared and blue, just listen to your angel...and listen....for they'll whisper back to you.

Jose Ricardo Flores-Mejia

It's been 20 years since your passing... However, I never forgotten the day you told me I am married, I am going to have a baby, and day your son was born... You touched some many lives in different ways in your brief time on this earth in ways others can't imagine... Some people can be given a life time on this earth and accomplish nothing, and there are some people who are given a short time and accomplish so much... You Mr. Flores-Mejia aka Ricky was that person and soldier who accomplish so much in your shoft tme... As I see the days pass by, and the war seems to be a distant memory, your memory is still alive in my life, and still on this and like other days with my grandchildren I sit back like we did many times and listen to those West Coast oldies... "Never Forgotten"

Laurie Cobb

She was my 3rd and 5th grade teacher. Today I'm 32 and still think about her. She was the best teacher ever. From her hair children stories to her bubbly happiness and kindness she spread. I'll never forget her. She was the teacher who had lunch with the kids in her classroom so everyone had someone to be with. She made my school experience amazing. I will never forget her.. I love you Mrs. Cobb. Sincerely, Forever in my thoughts, Alyssa (Viau) Capone


Larry E Polley Jr

SPC Polley died almost two decades ago so I don't know if this message will be seen. In honor of Memorial Day, my agency hands out cards with names of those who have fallen. This year, 2023, I received the card for SPC Polley and was inspired to look up more on him. I am thankful for his service and sacrifice. My condolences to his family. He is not forgotten.

Alex D Gonzalez

Love you and miss you always. Since you been gone it has been hard for everyone. I know you loved what you did, and I want to thank you for our freedom. If I can have you back home and safe living your life man everything would be different. No matter how much money they would offer me I would rather have you alive and home. Money comes and go so it's not worth losing you.


Christopher D Young

hello my name is Jesus Vega I would like to give my condolences to Christopher's family and friends, I served with him in Iraq and slept in the same quarters. I have many fond memories of him. I have never forgotten his sacrifice. I would like to share that the greatest memory I had of Chris is that he would speak highly of his mom and how much she meant to him. Chris was a strong minded person and looked out for other. He was kind and friendly the he made friends with everyone. Chris was truly a great man! I sincerely apologize for not sharing sooner. but would like to express that Chris's memory will never be forgotten! though he is not with us he will always be in spirit! If this message gets to Christopher's mother I she could know she raised a great man and for that I thank you.

James David Parker

I knew James David Parker as "Dave" when he lived in Solon Ohio. We met when I moved into town from out of state. He and his group of friends were a year or two older than me. Dave was a bright beacon of hope and joy to me. I was an unsure young man in a strange place. Dave introduced me to many people and ensured his friends always saved me a seat in the lunchroom. I have fond memories of him and his friends during that time. I doubt so many people would have been as wonderful toward me without Dave's incredible kindness. I've never forgotten his kindness. I hope to be able to pay it forward someday.
