As I stood at Jamie's grave in Arlington last month, I couldn't believe that he's been gone from us for ten years. "I join with you in remembering your son this month. Karey Keel-Stidham of Colville, Washington You will always be in my heart, my thoughts and prayers. I thank you, Shellie and Brian, for raising a Hero, for raising a Courageous young American who was Brave enough to become One of the Few. He is in Heaven at the right hand of God, with all the other Heroes who gave all for our Freedom. Your amazing son will forever live in my memory. Our sons were so much alike, when I saw you and Brian talking about him on a news interview, you could’ve been describing my own Marine son, who was the same age as Jeff. My son’s words and losing your son are what comes to my mind every year at this time. Memorial Day will never be the same again for me” We lost a brother Marine from Washington state. My son was in Iraq at the same time, and I will never forget what he said. My heart still breaks for you all every year on Memorial Day, and today, the 25th which I believe was Jeff’s birthday. It is now 15 years that this world lost such a bright Starr. "Dear Shellie, Brian and all the Starr family. We share in a profound grief and I wanted you to know that I remember. Next month will be 17 yrs for your loss of Jeffrey. "It has been 17 years since my son, Jamie, was KIA on a roof top in Ramadi.
