We should reflect on recent events in which certain celebrities have been idolized. This here folks is a REAL ICON, a REAL HERO, another person who selflessly gave their life for others. SSgt Lindstrom, may you rest in peace.
I cannot even begin to express my family’s gratitude for the service and dedication of Eric Lindstrom. I pray his life will be testimony to those still living of what self-sacrifice means. I pray those of us living under the freedoms he died for will honor his death with the same self-sacrifice of how we spend our remaining days on earth.
