You will be missed, I never got to know you as well as some, but I knew that you were honest and true. Even when times seemed tough, you showed that it wasn't so bad, you could enlighten someone with a joke, or show that it was easier than a person was trying to do. You always had an open heart, listened to those that needed to talk, and helped them get through. I thank you for all your help, your service, and your friendship.

Obi 1, I miss you man, there was definately no one else like you that's what made you special. Every time I talked to you, you made me laugh, only a couple people could do that in our Company of badasses and you were one of them. I think I speak for everyone when I say you will always be missed and in our hearts. I love you my brother.
Love, JERAMY WODADDY

I don't know what to say. Its been too long since we've last met, you graduated when I was still a freshman. Back in then, i was asked once who among the student body i desired to emulate. I said it was you...
For all your faults, you were one of the best of us, and now you are among the first of us to die in this war. There's nothing much to say to that...
Go with god, man...
