> Hello everyone and although I have not read all of your messages, I want to

say thank you for your thoughts and your prayers. My grandson was 24

years old, and out of the marines a little less than a year. He had been to

Iraq, and fought in the battle of Faluja, I do not know how to spell it. He had

been seeing a psychiatrist at the VA, and was being treated for post disorder

stress syndrome, I think that is what it's called. He was told not to drink and

take the meds they gave him, but Jeff had a drinking problem to begin with.

Perhaps he forgot he had taken them already, and took more. Perhaps he just

like the feeling he got when he drank and took them. None of us believe he

wanted to end his life, and that this was an accident. I have wondered many

times how these young men and women survive

> after going through

> what they do. We raise our children to be kind, don't fight, and be the best

that you can be, then we turn them over to Uncle Sam and they learn how to kill

and we expect them to return home and act like nothing has happened. Some cannot

do this, neither could Jeff.

> His grandmother in Florida will be home Fri. and his aunt Debbie is on a

cruise, therefore the wake will not be held until Sunday and his funeral will

not take place until Monday, this is a very long time for his mom and all of us

to have to wait to put him to rest. Thank you for your prayers, blessings, Bobby
