Live Free or Die

 One year ago we lost a hero, son, brother, friend, and so much more.  I could write about Jeremy for days, but instead I will share some of my favorite photos.

 This was taken moments before the battle for Husaybah erupted in 2004. It is Jeremy and some of his men from Force Recon, I believe. They were hunting IED planters at night. Love the NH Licence plate - which says it all. RIP, JG.

 "April 10, 2003- They day after Baghdad fell to the Marines. This was taken on a patrol of the city when I rode with Jeremy and his boys in Weapons Co, 3/7 for the day. This was an armory somewhere in the city. RIP, JG."Andrew Cutraro

" I took this just before the battle of Husaybah in April 2004. This is Jeremy laughing the moment we ran into each other for the first time in almost a year. RIP, JG": Andrew Cutraro

Jeremy visiting our home in Point Loma, CA November 2010. 

 He actually met Cooper and Mackenzie when they were 2 months old, he stayed on our couch a night or two, November 2009. I remember coming out of the nursery and hearing him snoring on the couch, he was so quiet coming into the house, the dogs didn't even bark!
