I offer my most sincere prayers and extend my deepest sympathies to the family and friends of US Army Veteran, Vincent L. Nardi.  I pray that the Lord Jesus is there with you to hold you and to give you His Peace and Comfort as you mourn the loss of your loved one.

For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth , nor any other created thing , shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. - Romans 8:38-39.

Thank you for my freedom Mr Nardi. May you rest in peace.

“Some people’s lives can truly make a difference however long or short their lives on earth. They give the gifts of kindness and of caring. They sow the seeds of friendship and self-worth. Some people’s lives are beautiful examples of putting others first, and when they are gone, the lives of those they touched are so much richer, and the love they shared lives on and on.”

Honored to Stand for those who have stood.

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to
our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them
to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our
children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."

My family and I wish to express our heartfelt condolences to the family of Mr. Vincent L Nardi; he is a true American hero. As a former member of the US Air Force Honor Guard in Washington DC, I had the honor of working along side and with the men of the 3rd Infantry at Arlington National Cemetery and all around our great Capital City. I feel I have lost a brother. Thank you Mr. Nardi for the sacrifices you made in selflessly serving all of us. We slept well at night knowing you were standing on the wall to guard us from the evil in this world. God Bless you sir, you are a hero. Rest in peace. Your mission is complete; well done. Standing by in Louisville!

We sleep safe in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm - Orwell

Our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Vincent L. Nardi, Army, Korean War Veteran. May God help you though this difficult time and sorrow. He is one of America's Heroes that will NEVER be forgotten.

Rest Safely and Securely in God's Loving Arms, Vincent.
 
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.
