Well, you and I just got off the phone for the 2nd time due to the tears and inability to talk.
There is nothing I can say, profound or wise. All that I can say, is that today a mother's heart is broken by, what I believe would be, unbearable pain. Yet, somewhere deep in that mother's heart joy and pride of a son who was willing pay the price for mother's everywhere to love their children.
Our family is blessed to know the Forester family. And to this brave young soldier's family I say thank you for the man you helped him become in his life. And to Mark Forester, I bow my head and thank God for you and the sacrifice you were willing to make for all of us...for freedom. God Bless...
What a sad loss. My heart goes out to his family, and I will keep them and him in my prayers. He looks like a wonderful young man.

I'm so sad for the loss of such a great man. He is a true hero and the world has lost an amazing person. I'm so sorry for his family and friends. Truly sad.
I am so sorry to hear that another of our brave military members has fallen. My thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends. Hugs
I'm sorry honey! I know how hard it is to hear that news. I will pray for that family along with yours. Love you!
What a sad loss. It's hard to have my family safe here- home from his tour, and see that someone else isn't coming home. He's a true hero
Thank you for your kind words. I adore Patsy. I am so very glad your husband came home to you safe. My thanks to him for his service. From one military wife to another, I know our husbands will be blessed for their thankless service, and I believe Mark is in a very special place in Paradise. God Bless.
I'm sad for your loss - and indeed OUR loss. Where would we be without these brave young soldiers? We owe so much to them and their families for their great sacrifice. May God bless all of them, and all of us.
Praying for this family and yours. I am deeply honored at every.single.soldier that fights with ALL they have to protect my family. And yes, sometimes giving all means life. I am deeply saddened for your loss.
I will never forget how the cost of my freedom.
