[bodytext] => Standing here at attention as your flag is folded, is where I need to be Taps is being played as I salute to you from me You defended our country with honor your sacrifice was giving your life You leave behind many memories for your family, your children, and your wife Many tears are shed many questions asked why I stand here and salute you I know in vain you did not die Proud to be a soldier you gave it your all and very best You knew the sacrifices to be made now taps is being played, as we lay you to rest In our hearts you will be forever your memories etched in each and every mind Your service to your country very honorable is what we find Family and friends are grieving your loss strikes us all, very deep in the heart Your body being lowered now as from this world forever you depart I lower my salute now but inside myself I pray I will continue to carry the honor you held in our fight for freedom on any given day Written on 25 May 2015 Copyright © 2015 E.
