There isn`t much more that I can add to what`s been said except to say I totally agree with the previous messages and to express my wife`s and my heart felt condolences.
Hopefully you do remain in our FTE family and that some day by chance there may be another rusty old Ford in your drive way.

Also, and I don't mean this in a derogatory way, but from what you typed, I can fully understand the difficulty in posting this message, it looked like your husband died in Iraq so I also what to thank him, and you, for his service to our country. I know this will not lessen the pain of losing him but rest assured all of us on the board owe him our undying gratitude.

Please take care and know you have all of our blessings. I am sure there will be uncountable sentiments expressed on this board. Also, please don’t leave. Even though you might not have the truck anymore you are still one of our family and family sticks together in good times and bad.

Bob
well said.

You have my deepest sympathies.

So very sad. Our hearts break for you. You are a part of the family. Your husband is a most honorable man and his spirit and the legacy of the service and sacrifice will always be there.

I too would like to express my deepest sympathy in the tragic loss of your husband and another of our hero's, it saddens all of us north and south of our borders as both our countries are loosing many great men and women in the defence for peace. As expressed from your fellow FTE members it would also be a great lose if you decided not to visit and continue to be part of our fine group. Our thoughts and prayers for you and your family.

It pretty much has all been said. But we will NEVER forget all the sacrifices the soldiers have made to keep our freedoms in this country. My deepest sympathies go out to you and all his loved ones.

I am so, so , so sorry about your loss. But rest assured he was there in Iraq for the right reasons. He is a hero. Despite what the left wing media says today about the Iraq situation, we are winning thanks to men like your husband. Just today I heard that this has been the best quarter ever, violence down, insurgent attacks down, the iraqi economy up, etc.

May God bless you and your family!
