Thoughts and prayers are extended to the family of Spc. Ronald J. Tucker.  His service and ultimate sacrifice for his country and fellow man will not be forgotten.  May he rest in eternal peace and may God provide the comfort and solace that his loved ones so dearly need.

I am sad to say I have a commitment in the morning and will miss at least the church part of this mission. If I read this right we will be doing an escort to the cemetary and a flag line there as well. I could be at the church around 10:30 for the escort or just meet everyone at Evergreen. Tell me which is better and I will do my best to make a small part of the mission to honor our hometown hero.

The highest courage is to dare to be yourself in the face of adversity. Choose right over wrong, ethics over convenience, and truth over popularity... these are the choices that measure your life. Travel the path of integrity without looking back, for there is never a wrong time to do the right thing.

Rest well in Valhalla.

And thank you.

To the family and friends of Specialist Tucker, we thank you for allowing us to stand in honor of your hero. His service and sacrifice will not be forgotten. God bless each and every one of you.

Specialist Tucker, your mission here on earth is completed, and now you join those heroes who have gone before you.

Rest in peace, little brother.
