Teen from Queens killed in Iraq

The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Le Ron Wilson was so eager to join the Army that for his 17th birthday, he asked his mother to sign enlistment papers.

Less than two years later, the Queens teenager was dead — killed by an explosive July 6 in Iraq.

“I always said whatever he chose I would support him,” Simona Francis said of her son. “That’s what he truly wanted.”

Francis, who lives in the Brookville section of Queens, said she and her son were so close and open with each other that he was “like a buddy” to her. “We almost didn’t have a mother-son relationship,” she said.

His mother said that Wilson, an Army private, had always been fascinated by weapons and camouflage, even...

  Such a handsome young man. I know from mom's comments how much he was loved, and my heart aches for you. I lost my son in Iraq also June 27, 2005. He was my best friend, but I know what it means to love and support their decisions. May God bless and comfort you and your friends. Barbara Shephard, Oklahoma

  To Le Ron's Mom. I too am a Army Mom. My heart goes out to you as a Mom. I too have a son in the Army and is about to go back to Iraq for the second time and this time probably right to Bagdahd. I am heartbroken that your son was only 18 years old. He didn't even begin to live yet. There are no words that can comfort your heart. My prayers go out to these fallen HEROES! Some Americans get too complacent with what we have and forget about who is fighting and laying down their lives daily to preserve this freedom. I wonder about things like did your son only just arrive in Iraq when this tragedy happened. He was so young. As I said words cannot comfort your heart but know that prayers are with you and your son. As a mother I know what you went through. I fear it everyday. God Bless you and your family.

  You are surely missed by those who had the privilege of knowing you. You are a true American hero, standing up for what you believed was right and fighting to establish and preserve the freedoms of others. I thank you, and salute 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"


Frank E. Adamski III

To the family of Frank Adamski, including his wife and daughter, my sincere condolences. I plan to make sure he is 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.


Paul C. Holter III

Miss you brother


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.
