From The Fallen: "Appreciate Every Day You Are Given"

From the memorial service for her brother who was killed in Iraq:

"I think that what he would want you all to take away from this tragic end is to appreciate every day you are given. He would want you all to go on and become the best person you can be, to chase your dreams. He would want you to appreciate every sunrise and sunset. Every star lit at night. He would want you to tell the people who are important to you that you love them. He would want you to reach out to those in pain and offer them a hand. We were so blessed to have had him in our lives, as brief as it may have been." - Carey Neesley
