Remembering Billy

I just got off the phone with my mom. My cousin (by marriage) died in Iraq yesterday. He was stationed in Hawaii and went to Iraq in December as an Army medic. We are not sure at this point exactly how he died. He leaves behind a wife (they haven't been married long). He was only in his 20's. I know he was brave and fought for our country with everything in him. I urge you to pray for his family and friends. We will miss you, Billy.

**Update: He was traveling with four other soldiers and their vehicle hit an IED. Billy was killed and the 4 others he was with were hurt. I am not sure how seriously, but so far only one fatality.
