Miss You

Time flies by but there isn’t a day that Sgt Zimny dosen’t cross my mind he tought me so much during the months I had the privaledge to serve next to him. It was my first deployment it was hard being away from home but being with Sgt Zimny I never thought about it I looked up to him like the older brother  I never had. The day we got the news that I felt like my heart was ripped out my chest if it wasn’t for SSgt Litton and Sgt Curtis I don’t know what i would of done I felt as if it was my fault cause it was my seat that Sgt Zimny road on during the patrol but being the man that he was he didn’t let me go on the patrol cause we where leaving soon and it was the last patrol. Cause of Sgt Zimny I re enlisted and cause of  him Im here today. He lives in me and all the young Marines he influenced during are tours of duty he will never be forgotten. In my eyes he’s the Marine that all Marines strive to be like.

Love You and miss you Dearly
Cpl Catsro, Erick

    Hi ERick,

    I know that it took courage for
    you to write on Chris’s site. You
    are carrying a heavy burden.

    I could relate to your pain because
    I too, felt as if my heart was ripped
    out of my chest and someone kicked me
    in my stomach.

    Erik, do as Chris did and be a
    big brother and help all of the
    young Marines.

    I agree that Chris lives in you
    and all of the young Marines he
    helped. As long as our hearts
    beat, Chris will never be
    forgotten by his family,
    friends and all of the people
    that met Chris.

    Erik, God had other plans for you.
    Listen to your heart and one day
    your answer will come. May the
    Lord give you peace.

    Mrs. Zimny
