My deepest condolences go out to the family of PFC Ward. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I am the pilot bringing him home today, we are on a flight delay due to bad weather here in Dover, we are looking at a minimum 4-5 hour delay. I will do my best to update you via this forum or through Craig as soon as I can for both this one and the Long Beach flight for USMC Cpl Guzman. Thank you all for everything and I am very sorry for the delay.

Our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Cpl. Miguel A. Guzman. May God help you though this difficult time and sorrow. Know
your son was and is a Hero to us all. Our thoughts and prayers are with
you always. He will never be forgotten.
Rest Safely and Securely in God's Loving Arms, Miguel.
Going home, going home,
I'm just going home.
Quiet-like, slip away-
I'll be going home.
It's not far, just close by;
Jesus is the Door;
Work all done, laid aside,
Fear and grief no more.
Friends are there, waiting now.
He is waiting, too.
See His smile! See His hand!
He will lead me through.
Morning
Star lights the way;
Restless dream all done;
Shadows gone, break of day,
Life has just begun.
Every tear wiped away,
Pain and sickness gone;
Wide awake there with Him!
Peace goes on and on!
Going home, going home,
I'll be going home.
See the Light! See the Sun!
I'm just going home.

| Our heart felt condolences to the Guzman family and friends in the loss of Miguel. Thank you for his service to this great country. Our prayers go out to God for you in this time of loss. Miguel served to give us the freedom we now enjoy so much and for that he is one of the GREAT AMERICAN HEROS of the land. God bless your family and friends. Wish I could have shaken his hand and told him thank you myself. God tells us that “Greater love hath no man than this that a man lay down his life for his friends.” (John 15:13) As Christ our Lord laid down His life for us that believe in Him for salvation, so your love one has laid down his life for us for our freedom. This act has made him a Super Hero in my heart and I thank-you deeply for this sacrifice made for our freedoms. I pray that God will now bless your lives and help you see how great a thing this is which your loved one has done. The FALLEN MILITARY MEMBER has shown this country his greatest love for country and friends |
