A Favor For A Hero

I will be attending another PGR mission tomorrow to honor home Lance Cpl. James R. Davenport late of Danville, IN. who's family has relocated here to South Carolina. Cpl. Davenport was killed by a roadside bomb the day before Thanksgiving.
His brother Daniel is currently serving as a Spec. in the Army, his father Thomas is retired USAF, his uncles Jimmy and Jesse are Vietnam Vets. This family has more than paid their dues.
If you could find it in your hearts to add a prayer or condolence to this thread I will be printing it to give to his brother tomorrow
There will also be a Memorial service on Dec 16th 1:00 pm at Bethesda Baptist Church in Brownsburg IN. and the wackos have announced their plan to disrupt it. So if you live near there grab a flag and go if you can at his brothers request. I will be deleting the above paragraph before I print the thread.
Thanks, Tim Rambow

To the Davenport family--
Words alone can not express the debt of gratitude we owe your loved ones for their service and sacrifice. They embody the definition of the word hero. We are sorry for your loss and grieve with you. Our love and prayers are with you.

To the Davenport Family,
Any words spoken here can never express our sorrow for the sacrifice your son made for this country.
I am profoundly grateful for men such as him who gave all, for their nation and for us.
He will never be forgotten.

God Bless the Hero's in our life,
God Bless his family,
Remember his strife.
He gave what he had,
knew good from bad,
Honor him and his life.
Asked not for this himself,
questioned not if it was wrong,
For this Hero knew what must be done.
Bless his soul and pray,
you are Free again today,
He has surely done his job.
Remember him and smile,
he will live forever more,
In our hearts and in our prayers.
For this is the truest love,
he gave to all of us,
Our freedom we cherish as he is layed to rest.
Thank you Lance Cpl. James R. Davenport and all who sacrifice all to protect us, and Honor our rights.
We Love You ALL!

The Davenports,
You are in our prayers. I cannot share in your grief, but I share in your sorrow. I am extremely grateful for our young men and women who are willing to lay it on the line for those of us who cannot. May God grant you his peace.

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

You folks are my Hero's, I am going to start formatting and moving the pictures so that I can do a nice job of printing and displaying these amazing tributes. Don't let that stop anyone from adding if they wish as I still have some time in the morning (if I sleep) to finish up before I head out. Thanks JeffB for the bump, and thank you all from the bottom of my heart.
This thread will remain the same as I will be moving each response individually to Word docs. I can't read this thread without tearing up! I am so proud to be a member of Clusterville.

Ah! The foreigners put on such airs
Wearing the tangerine suits
And their harlequin eyes.
The pain they inspire
Draws in harmonica melodies
And the feathers of birds
Which flame up at their touch.
It all comes to light in the sheer
Debonair.
