Thank you, SGT Nickolas A. Mueller for your service to this Nation. Individuals like you put your life on the line and sacrifice your lives for our freedoms. And it breaks my heart. I pray each day that the Lord our God will provide each and every one of our soldiers an Angel to watch over and protect them. It is the soldier that gives us freedom, not the politicians. Only two people ever died for our freedoms. One was Jesus Christ and the other was the American Soldier. The least I can do is pay homage and respect to this Hero and his family. A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America “for an amount of up to and including my life.” That is Honor. To the family of this American Hero: We as a nation grieve with you in your loss. His adherence to “Duty to God and Country” will not be forgotten. Death is a time to rejoice in the life someone had and the lives they touched on this earth. Life is but a blink of an eye. May the Great Architect take this Hero and his family into his council, protect and heal them.

| It is with heartfelt regret and sympathy that I submit these words of condolence to the loved ones of U.S. Army Sergeant Nickolas A. Mueller. I have been a member of the Army family most of my life; and I know that SGT Mueller and his fellow soldiers are the very best that our country has to defend all that is dear to our hearts. I sorrow for the loss of such men; and I pray for their families. May Our Heavenly Father surround each individual who has lost so much, with a loving warmth to aid them through all the coming days. May they be given strength and solace, and understanding that love is eternal. |
