    I hope this is the last one of these I have to do cause it makes me so sad doing them for this reason.

    It was requested that I send this to the unit so they can all sign it before going to his parents so it will be leave in the morning.

    An exquisitely worked memorial to someone who made the ultimate sacrifice. I can understand how it makes you sad, but it will ease his family's pain, knowing you cared enough to make it and that it will carry the names and messages of his comrades to their home.
