As I sit at this computer trying to figure out the right
words to say, I can't think of anything except that "I love you, my
son".
People around the United States have seen the pain on my
face and some have felt the pain in my heart, one thing for sure they all know,
"I love you, my son".
God only select the best roses for his garden, and I
always knew that someday you would be in that garden Cherone, but that is
alright just remember that "I love you my son".
Weeks have past and I still cry everyday, not for sadness
but thinking about all the joy and happiness that you gave us, and for that,
"I love you, my son."
You shine like a star, you are present in this room today,
no one else can see you, no one else can feel you, I know you are there, "I
love you, my son."
This web page was done in your honor my son, and whenever
I want, feel, or need to let the world know how much I love you, I will tell
them that "I love you, my son".
Look down and smile on me Cherone, you gave me 22
beautiful years of your life that I will always cherish because "I know you
love me too, my son."
Yes, everyone "REMEMBER THE COLE" remember the
seventeen sailors that died on October 12,2000.
