Updated 29 Jul 08 1856 edt S Sturgis
Our assistance has been requested to honor the service and the sacrifice of 1LT Jason D. Mann on 02 AUG 08 in Pennsauken, NJ and then Oaklyn, NJ. LT Mann, from Woodlynne,NJ died on July 17 in Afghanistan. This mission will be the second part of the services conducted for LT Mann. Services were held in Virginia on 25 JUL and 26 JUL where LT Mann's wife is stationed.
The mission on Saturday will consist of two parts:
A Memorial Service will be held at the Cooper River War Memorial, Pennsauken, NJ at 1000.
At 1300 on Saturday afternoon, a church service will be held at St. Mark's Lutheran Church, 409 White Horse Pike, Oaklyn, NJ.
Staging information and ride itineraries will be provided as they become available after I have further discussions with the family and other responsible parties Wednesday morning.

Our sincere condolences to the family and friends of
1st Lt. Jason D. Mann. May God help you though this difficult time and sorrow. Know
your loved one 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, Jason.
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.

As I get ready to write to you, the words fall away as almost meaningless because of the pain I know you feel. I know, because I have felt that pain.
Know that you are NOT alone on this difficult path. Others are there to help you: reach out and embrace them, for they are offering not only themselves, but sharing with you that little bit of the Almighty that resides in all of us. This offering/sharing is what WILL give you the strength you will need to get thru. Trust me.
Any service related death, on or off duty, whether accident or illness, wounds received or KIA, warrant the Gold Star for the family. Don't let anyone tell you different.
I offer you my services, such as they are. If you want to talk, feel free to get in touch with me thru the PGR messaging. I WILL return your call/message. ANYTIME!
In the meantime know that my wife's and my prayers are with you.

My son served under Lt. Mann in Afghanistan, and truly respected his commanding officer. Lt. Mann was the most honorable, dedicated officer any mother could wish to have leading her son in battle in Afghanistan. He took the time to communicate home to us on the status of our loved ones, which was deeply appreciated. His honest caring for the men he led was evident in his writings, as was his love for his Country, his Wife and Daughter and the Marines. We are deeply devestated by the loss of this heroic Marine. His wife and daughter are in our prayers. |

A Mother asked President Bush, "Why did my Child have to die in Iraq?" Another Mother asked President Kennedy,"Why did my Child have to die in Vietnam?" Another Mother asked President Truman, "Why did my Child have to die in Korea?" Another Mother asked President F.D. Roosevelt,"Why did my Child have to die at Iwo Jima ?" Another Mother asked President W. Wilson, "Why did my Child have to die on the battlefield of France ?" Yet another Mother asked President Lincoln,"Why did my Child have to die at Gettysburg ?" And yet another Mother asked President G.Washington, "Why did my Child have to die near Valley Forge?" Long, long ago a Mother (Mary) asked, "Heavenly Father, why did my Child have to die on a cross outside Jerusalim?" All the answers are so near the same. One died to save our Souls and the others died to protect our Freedoms. |
