| My condolences to the family and friends of SPC Clifton. I thank you for your sacrifice for your country. You made it possible for all Americans and freedom loving people around the world to sleep soundly, taking up arms against those who would do us harm. Your courage and dedication to duty will go on with those who served with you, your legacy will live on. Your mission is complete, you will now stand tall at the right hand of our Father with all those who went before you. I will stand in honor of you tomorrow as I stand at services for Capt.

As the song says so well…

where at least I know I’m free.
And I won’t forget the men(and women) who died,
who gave that right to me.”

If I should go
tomorrow
It would never be
goodbye,
For I have left my
heart with you,
So don't you ever
cry.
The love that's deep
within me,
Shall reach you from
the stars,
You'll feel it from
the heavens,
And it will heal the
scars.
Thank you Karen for paying the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms.
