Thank you Patriot Guard Riders, you don't know how much this means to us. We are in Maryland and due to additional current family emergencies also happening, we are unable to fly to Colorado to be there when our Thomas is laid to rest. Knowing that you will be standing in honor for him will help us deal with that. Please know that your words mean a great deal to us friends and family. We love you and miss you Thomas. 💔💖
I wish to send my sincere condolences and prayers to the family and friends of Thomas Downing a US Marine Corps Hero. I am grateful for the 5 years of service that was provided us, in the past, so we can enjoy the freedoms we have today.
