I never knew Jeremy. But I knew of him for 6 years.
I am family, and circumstances were such that our paths never crossed.So....I know of his childhood michiefI know of his love of lifeI know of his love of familyand of his dear wifeHe had an awakening, as we all have hadHis came too soon in the suburbs of Iraq.His mother cannot fathom how it can be that a son so strong vanish an leave us .. Why me? Why Jeremy?A father wrestles with family v country but a courage of hope knows, his paternal teachings have made his love.
EndureohWhere is our husband, son, father, grandson?With our angels and comrades.Oh, and by the way, this one wears a stetson, and hunts in the black hills. He is waiting for his comrades.We shall see him, and think of him, always, and love him
