Gary,
Yesterday was Memorial Day. I think of your everyday.  I miss you everyday.  I thank God for you and for the life you lived and the joy you gave to me and to each person you interacted with.  But yesterday I thought of you-- The Marine, The Soldier, the ultimate sacrifice you gave to our country.  You loved this country, you were genuinely patriotic and so proud to serve.  We are honored, this entire Nation, your family, your friends who love you dearly, are honored and humbled by the years of service and the passion and dedication you served with until the last moment.   And now you live on, in another form, but just as much in my heart and each day in my memory. 
Thank you, Gary, for loving our country, for loving what you did, for protecting our freedom and serving with such honor. I am so proud to know you, Major Gary Robert Fullerton USMC.
