Cranston girl killed in Iraq

Wow, I havent read the paper or watched the news in a few days and i was saddened to hear one of Rhode Islands own was killed during that suicide bombing in iraq this past week. 21 year old female Marine from Cranston. What a pretty girl too. God bless her and her family. I started reading some of the messages people posted about her on Projo.com and i just coudn't get through them so i had to stop. So sad. God bless her

The town of Marblehead will be laying SS Chris Piper to rest tomorrow morning. He was injured in Afganistan and died after transfer to states side hospital. Piper always said " It's nice here, but it doesn't come for free. Someone has to write the check." He was willing to write that check. What really is bugging people here is that we are expecting protestors during this military funeral, some group of looneys led by a self proclaimed prophet who says the US deserves this because we tolerate homosexuality........

RIP Piper

I hope all of their families can find some peace. Every one of these people over there go through more than most of us ever will.

God bless them...
