  Your sacrifice will remain in our hearts for a lifetime,

with intense gratitude. May God bless you and your family.

Rest Safely and Securely in God's Loving Arms.

We cherish too, the Poppy red

That grows on fields where valor led,

It seems to signal to the skies

That blood of heros never dies.

  Eagles~~To bring down evil, some must fall. To fight for right, some answer the call.~~To help the oppressed, some give up their time, their homes, their loves, they're eagles not doves.~~To keep peace for those in need, some go into wars of just we read.~~To keep us safe it's soldiers we call. They will all give some and some give all.~~Thank You Spc. Micheal E. Phillips for giving it all to keep America safe. Deepest Sympathy to the family of Mr. Phillips.~~Chloe Coan Louisville Ky.

  TAPS

TAPS the most beautiful bugle call,

known as the most eloquent of all.

Not only the signal the day is done,

but to say goodbye,

to a comrade, brother or son.

A melody so hauntingly profound,

a piercing yet peaceful sound.

Sounded over every soldiers grave,

to honor those who were so brave.

Soldiers raise their hands to their caps,

saluting the fallen as the bugler plays TAPS.

Rifles are fired in the sky,

to say farewell to another American G.I.

Listening to the bugle play,

reminds us of the price they had to pay.

The sound is bittersweet,

letting go of a hero,

to someday meet again.

Nothing is more touching perhaps,

or can render emotion like the call of TAPS.

Tears from a bugle fall,

as TAPS is played,

for the heroes who gave their all.

Thank you Mr. Phillips you have given me the freedom I enjoy today. Freedom never comes free.

I am so sorry that you had to die.

Sincerely yours,

Sydney Meyer

age 10

Louisville, Ky.

  There beside a grave she stands.

A folded flag clutched in her hands.

A silent teardrop on her face,

her brave young child, has entered grace.

She does not hear the sermon said,

just memories run through her head.

The child she held so long ago,

the child with faith she let go.

The child who heard the nations call,

and in the end gave it all.

Without fear or thoughts of self,

thoughts of freedom and little else.

A bugle sounds TAPS in the wind,

a mournful sound it does send.

A reminder to us all, that for freedom,

this price was paid,

and her sweet young to rest was laid.

Deepest sympathy to the family of Mr. Phillips.

May the love and memories carry you through these very difficult days.

Norma Coan

Louisville Ky.

  Dear Soldier (Mr. Phillips)

I am grateful you chose to go when others said the cause was wrong. You did not turn your back in order to help in some way bring about peace. I am grateful for you because tonight I can sit down and eat a warm meal. I am grateful to you because of your sacrifice I can say" I do not like war."

This is without worrying that my door will be kicked in and I will be dragged away. Mostly I am grateful to you because of your sacrifices, I am reminded once again of what it is I have. For this I am grateful to you, because I can go out and say absolutely the dumbest things, and do so because being dumb is no crime. I am grateful to you because I get to sit down with family and friends and have a meal in peace. I am also grateful to you because if I think that a certain politician is a fool.....I can think it without being lined up against a brick wall and shot.

There are many things dear soldier (Mr. Phillips) that I am grateful to you, because of the fact that you did not say no. Peace be with you and all of yours and most of all I salute you, because I am grateful to you dear soldier (Mr. Phillips)

Blue C. Rowe

I am the Chaplain, along with 1SG Obalabi, who made this notification. This was my fifth death notification in 2009. I remembered this one like it was yesterday, and I routinely think about 1SG Rowe’s wife and their son, who was seven at the time. This notification stands out to me because we had to come back to the house a few times because no one was home. We finally saw a light on around 2130, and I and 1SG O went to the door and knocked. 1SG Rowe’s wife answered the door, and it was clear that his wife was not registering why we were there. She did invite us, and we sat down at the table, and ISG O made the notification. 1SG Rowe’s wife said, "Are you sure?" She asked that question five times, and I finally said, " Ma’am, we would not be here if we were not sure. Her response to us was, I just spoke to him a couple of days ago, and he was supposed to come home next week. She immediately got up from the table, called her dad, and notified him. She collapsed to the floor and was crying. The 1SG and I just stood there. We were there for a while, and I remembered that when she asked me to pray, I had to pause a few times to keep from losing it. Cindy, I thought about your husband through the years, and I often wondered how you and your son are doing. I have often prayed for you and your family. And I thank your husband for his sacrifice to our country. I do hope you see this, and I will continue to pray for you and your family. God Bless You Chaplain Will Strong Jr. US Army Retired Romans 8:37


Jose L. Montenegro Jr

Philip A. Murphy-Sweet

Phil worked for me when he volunteered to deploy to Iraq with the Joint Contracting Command. He was a great officer, a great friend and an incredible husband/father. He was just a couple of days away from returning from his deployment. I received an email from him on 5 April requesting to stay a bit longer so he could finish the job started. I had not yet responded to his email when I was notified by our Commanding Office on Easter morning that Phil had been killed. Miss you Phil!


David A Wilkey Jr

A good young man. My son's best friend.


Jose Ricardo Flores-Mejia

It's been 20 years since your passing... However, I never forgotten the day you told me I am married, I am going to have a baby, and day your son was born... You touched some many lives in different ways in your brief time on this earth in ways others can't imagine... Some people can be given a life time on this earth and accomplish nothing, and there are some people who are given a short time and accomplish so much... You Mr. Flores-Mejia aka Ricky was that person and soldier who accomplish so much in your shoft tme... As I see the days pass by, and the war seems to be a distant memory, your memory is still alive in my life, and still on this and like other days with my grandchildren I sit back like we did many times and listen to those West Coast oldies... "Never Forgotten"


Frank E. Adamski III

To the family of Frank Adamski, including his wife and daughter, my sincere condolences. I plan to make sure he is never forgotten.
