When I say WOW It's in an AMAZED kind of way.
I wasn't sure what to expect as we drove to Cedar City to see Dave off.
I was truly amazed.
The Commander gave a departing speech and this is what he said,
"I have to tell you, this is a dangerous mission.
The Triple Deuce (222 unit number) has never seen the
kind of challenges they will soon be up against.
Everyday these men will need your thoughts,
your prayers and your concern."
That's a reality I am not sure I realized or was ready to hear.
Roll Call
Dave's Family
Thankful the Patriot Guard was there and even more thankful
we didn't need them.
Don't let that smile fool ya.

It was truly an honor to be among the many soldiers and their families.
They definitely have my thoughts, my prayers and my concern.
We Love you Dave

I feel so honored that I was able to meet both Kim and Dave. We will be praying for his saftey daily and hoping Kim can fill her time with postive thoughts and cyber hugs.
Sending Dave off with prayers of safety and prayers of peace to you all,especially Kim,while he is gone.
This brought tears to my eyes. Those men and women who serve our country earn and deserve our respect every minute of every day. Our thoughts and prayers will definitely be with them.
Wow, I can't imagine how hard that would be! Especially with a son that has been obsessed with the military since he could walk. I know this is his future, and although I'd be proud, it also give's me a pit in my stomach!
I agree, great pics. I'm in tears too. My cousin Jace Sorensen is in the 222 too. My prayers are with them and Kim and all the families.
