| Prayers & Condolences For: Nicholas R. Anderson BY Anonymous on Dec 10, 2009 | | | To the Anderson family,I wanted to let you know how sorry I am for your loss. I am a 21 year old female in the Army and I have been since 2005 as well. This past Veterans Day I attended a school in Texas who had a tribute to our fallen soldiers. Everyone in the room had a glow stick with a fallen soldiers name, age, city, and state. While the vice principal (A former Marine) was singing Angels among us better than any one who has ever sang it before we all in sequence cracked our glow sticks and twirled them around like a eveclear concert. I wore mine around my neck all day in uniform. Your son happened to be on my glow stick. I am grateful for his service and sacrifice. May he rest in peace. If you would like to contact me please feel free to write me or call me at any time (Email Link) 281-804-4382
