It is with a heavy heart that I pass on my condolences to you and your family. Your loved one will not be forgotten. Our brothers-at-arms will continue the good fight until we bring all our people home. Fellow Veteran, your mission is complete. You are truly an American hero and the world in which we live is a safer place because of your commitment to freedom. We will now proudly stand for you with honor, dignity, and respect. We pray that you will now rest peacefully in the arms of God. My prayers are with you and your family during this time of loss.

Vaya con Dios Mi Hermano!

Final Inspection

The soldier stood and faced God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining.
Just as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now,soldier.
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
The soldier squared his shoulders and said,
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't.
Because those of us who carry guns,
Can't always be a saint.
I've had to work most Sundays,
And at times my talk was tough.
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny,
That wasn't mine to keep....
Though I worked a lot of overtime.
When the bills just got too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear.
And sometimes, God, forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place,
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around,
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here, Lord.
It needn't be so grand.
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don’t, I’ll understand.
There was a silence all around the throne,
Where the saints had often trod.
As the soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now,soldier
you’ve borne your burdens well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven’s streets;
you’ve done your time in Hell."

Arizona Mission Report. We had an absolutely beautiful morning. Turnout was lite, as expected. We had 6 bikes, and Dave, our Flag Guy show up. NG Honor Guard was on hand for Military Honors, as well as Army Chaplain Lockhart, and a couple other Army reps. including acting NCO/CAO Vance, who coordinated with me. The service lasted about 30 minutes, and we were done.

Rest in Peace Capt. Madigan, you have served this country well.
