Dear YourBasicMom & son,

I am an active duty military wife.
Army wife, Air Force mom, going on almost 20 years.
Yet,... I sit here silent unable to come up with the words to make your hurt and pain go away.

Over the years no matter how hard we are trained, no matter how much we have endured, no matter how many lives we've seen taken, the heartache is never lessened.

Every life as precious as the one before and the one after.

My heart aches for you, your son, his best friend's family, and to all who knew service member Ignacio Ramirez.

His duty and ultimate scarifice to his country, shall not be forgotten.

As an American, as a part of the Army family, as a mother, I send not my words,
but my heart felt condolences, my appreciation, my prayers, and my ultimate respect.

God Bless Ignacio (Nacho ) Ramirez, his family, and all who knew him.
Again I say,.....
~ He shall not be forgotten ~
