MAJ. DANIELSON, WELCOME HOME.
My condolences to Maj. Danielson's Family. May Maj. Danielson, and his family, have peace, now that he has arrived home. May Maj. Danielson be welcomed into eternity by the Warriors that preceeded him. May Maj. Danielson look upon his son, and walk proud, with his chest out.

Ben, we fought a common cause, and I never got to say "Welcome Home" to you. Now, your watch is ended and you have finally gone "HOME".
May our God grant you total peace eternal, for you have earned it my brother. Rest In Peace and tell all our brothers and sisters “Welcome Home” for me.
MISS ME
When I come to the end of the road and the sun has set for me.
I want no rites in a gloom filled room, why cry for a soul set free?
Miss me a little, but not too long and not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love that we once shared…miss me, but not too long.
For this is a journey all must take and each must go alone.
It is all part of the Master’s plan, a step in the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick of heart, go to the friends we know.
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds…miss me, but let me go.
To family and friends, know that Ben’s rest is now peaceful as he awaits all of us.
May God give each of you the peace and strength to miss him, but let him go.

Maj Danielson.... your story gives me chills. Reading about you just increases my respect for what you and the rest of your brothers and sisters gave to me.
To the family of Maj Danielson... it is with honor that I am standing for you.
To all those vets who were there.. I can never with honesty say I understand because I wasn't there. But as the patch says.. I still care. It will be my honor to stand next to you. |

May the family and friends of AF Maj. Ben Danielson "Boxxer 22", be comforted. I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm sorry it took so long to have him home. I wrote this for those who have waited and are still waiting for their POW/MIA to come home.
Pass the years of silence I wait for you
Your bracelet on my wrist forever
The tangle of the darkest night
Would not break this love to be
Yet, 'to be', found us, not soon enough
To spare the pain of waiting
We lost our way and lost our lives
Still love has found a way
On moonlit paths in secret gardens
In smiling silence I come to you
Each night when whispers of lost words
You find my soul and touch my lips
Hold me until heaven breaks
And hearts will meld together
Love has found a way
