We are praying for you and your family. We love you! I know you know that God is still on the throne. He loves you so much. We don't have the answers to why tragic things happen. We just have to believe that good can come out of this. God is all about reaching that one person. Its still not easy because he was your son and I could never imagine the pain of your loss. I pray for peace and comfort! We love you Tommye Ann.

God Bless You for your Service and may God be with your Family at this time.

I am so sorry to hear of the death of your son. Please take comfort in knowing he is a true American hero. My thoughts and prayers are with you now and in the days to come. God bless you and your family.

A beautiful life remembered. Your country salutes you warrior.

PFC David Drake Served with my son Travis. They were in the same company. My heart goes out to your family, I know you are very proud of David....

The adverse winds blew against my life;
My little ship with grief was tossed:
My plans were gone-heart full of strife,
and all my hope seemed to be lost..
"Then He arose" one word of peace.
"There was a calm"... a sweet release.

A tempest great of doubt and fear
Possessed my mind; no light was there
To guide, or make my vision clear.
Dark night! twas more than I could bear-
"Then He arose", I saw his face-
"There was a calm" filled with his grace.

My heart was sinking 'neath the wave
Of deepening test and raging grief;
All seemed as lost, and none could save,
And nothing could bring me relief-
"Then He arose"- and spoke one word,
"There was a calm!" It is the Lord. (L.S.P)

Faith lifts the shattered hopes..... Peace be with you All
God Bless our Heroes..... From Army parents

God has called another hero for guard duty at the gates of heaven. You will be missed here on earth. Prayers to the friends & family left here to remember. RIP PFC David Drake

prayers are with you and your family!

Our thought and prayers are with the family of our fallen hero. May he rest in peace.
