My deepest sympathy to the family of Spc. Kenneth M. Cross. I appreciate all of his contributions to our country and may there be a special place for him in heaven. He gave his 'all' so young. He has joined the ranks of heroes and I love him for that.

Our sincere condolences to all those who mourn the passing of Spc. Cross. His sacrifice shall not go unrecognized.
Standing by for mission details.
Those heroes who make the ultimate
sacrifice do not pass on alone. They are carried from the fields of battle by the
Valkyr who carry them to Valhall. Here they will live on with all those who
have gone on before to await the final and ultimate battle, Ragnnarök.

It is with a heavy heart that I wish to express my sympathies to Spf. Cross' Family, friends, and his Fellow Troops. Again, a brave, young Warrior has been taken from his Family, and from this great country. Please accept my condolences.
I am saddened to say I will not be making this Mission, as work schedule won't allow it. Please ride with my heart on your sleeve, fellow PGRs. |
