Thank you Ranger Garbs, for the freedom that those of us who remain are priviledged to enjoy. You've given more than any of us could ever hope to thank you for. The best we can do to try is to stand watch with your family and friends during this trying time. Rest easy soldier, we've got your back, and will take it from here.

God willing, I will be there to honor this hero, and ride with him on his final journey.

My thoughts, prayers, and sincere condolences to the family and friends of Pfc. Ryan Garbs. My heartfelt gratitude to this American hero for answering the call when his country needed him. I will always hold in the highest regard those American men and women who paid the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom and to those who are still in harms way.
These words will not fill the emptiness felt by the loss of Ryan but let it serve as a reminder that the people of this great nation care and also feel this loss.

God bless you Pfc. Ryan Garbs.

I will do my best to be there to escort and honor this American hero to his final resting place.

Our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Army Ranger Pfc. Ryan Garbs. 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, Ryan.


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.

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you: 1. Jesus Christ. 2. The American G.I. One died for your soul, the other for your Freedom.
