My profound condolences to the family of SSG Blystone, a true American hero, who gave his life for our nation and the freedoms we cherish. My heart is heavy with grief for his wife, 3 children and parents. May God comfort you and ease the pain you are suffering at this difficult time. I believe he will be welcomed in that special place in Heaven, reserved for those who have given their all in defense of liberty. It will be my honor to stand for SSG Blystone and his family, as he stood up for all of us.
With sincere respect,

| SSgt Blystone, you are very truly appreciated. You stand now a hero at heaven's gates, along with all our fallen warriors who have gone before you. Rest easy now, Ronald, and know you will be forever remembered here. |

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 |
