Today I am sending my first message to you. I was unaware that this was here for me to do. I have been blessed with not knowing anyone personally that is serving or has served so I don't know the heartache and fear that they and you face. I do know that you are much appreciated for all your sacrifices and greatly admired for your courage and selflessness. I will say a pray each night for all of you and your families. God bless you and keep you safe until you can return to our beautiful Canada and the arms of all your loved ones. Thank you so much.

Debbie Kaiser, London, Ontario
