Two days ago I did not know George Obourn Jr. I have come to know him and his friend Kristofer Walker. The Patriot Guard Riders have also gotten to know these men, their sacrifices, and their families. Our lines may be thined a little in honoring both these heros; but, we will be where needed.
Thank you George.

An hour to appreciate them,
A day to love them,
But an entire life to forget them.

To the family of Spc Obourn. What words could possibly help during a time like this?
When we know not what we should pray for as we ought, the Spirit maketh intercessions for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Romans 8:26
So let not your heart be troubled, for your loved one has gone to the place which Jesus has prepared. Stand down soldier, your mission here is complete. |
|
==============================
When a mans heart is full of deceit it burns up, dies and a dark shadow falls over his soul. From the ashes of a once great man has risen a curse, a wrong that must be righted. We look to the skies for a vindicator, someone to strike fear into the black hearts of the same men who created him. The battle between good and evil has begun. Against an army of shadows comes the Dark Warrior, the purveyor of good, with a voice of silence and a mission of justice. - Steve "Sting" Borden |

It is with a heavy heart that I pass on these condolences to you and your family. I know that these words won’t bring your loved one back, but be assured, they will not be forgotten. Our brothers & sisters-at-arms will continue the good fight until we bring all our people home. My prayers are with you during this time of loss.
Vaya con Dios!
