| My deepest condolences to the family of Sgt. Gary D. Willett. You are in my thoughts and prayers, and I deeply regret that I will not be able to ride for this Hero, but we will be away from home on that day. Just know that we will be thinking of all of you on that day, and throughout this week, and for many weeks to come. Thank you for the sacrifice that you have made, so that we can remain safe here at home.
Sgt. Willett, Well Done Soldier, time to go home. May you find companionship with your comrades in Heaven until your family can join you. |

Thank you for your service and sacrifice in defending and protecting our freedoms. As a nation we mourn your loss, and we will remember you always as a true American hero. To the family, I offer my prayers and support. I understand a little of what you are going through-my son, a Marine LCpl, was killed in Iraq. I pray wonderful memories of your dear warrior help eventually to ease the pain you endure today. Your hero will never be forgotten-he leaves a legacy of honor and courage that few will ever achieve. God bless you. Julie Francis, Matt's Mom |
