A Sad Loss.

clipped from www.mod.uk Corporal Damian Mulvihill killed in Afghanistan 'Dee' was a giant of a man who impressed all who met him. Ever cheerful, he would never allow problems to get him down. He always had a friendly word for anyone he met and his fantastic personality filled any room he walked into. He was an excellent listener and would always make time for others. "He was a larger-than-life individual, with a personality to match, and his fellow marines took great comfort from his mere presence. As a friend he was loyal and trusted, as a comrade he was admired and emulated; a man of considerable ability, he will be sadly missed. Corporal Mulvihill has been cruelly taken from us in the prime of life but he shall not be forgotten. Our thoughts and most sincere condolences go out to his family and fiancée Lisa at this most difficult and sad time."

There will be no taking from this brave man's family the absolute respect they need at this awful time.
May your happy memories calm your grief.
