Thank you from Cee-gar man and family

[Cee-gar Man US Marine]

We thank you for your warmth and prayers. I read the web site with all the wonderful people that have thought of us. We are truly blessed. Nick had surgery a week ago to remove shrapnel from the bottom of his surviving eye, that was narrowly missed.I read him all the comments on this site before he went to sleep, he went to sleep a very happy man with a smile on his face. You will often hear him say he feels like George Bailey from the movie, It's a Wonderful Life. Reading all of this reminds us of the part where you can hear all the towns prayers from the heavens in the very beginning of the movie.He is thankful for life and will travel down the path that God has chosen for him, without questioning it.I am truly a very lucky lady to have such a wonderful man as my husband and our son could not have a better man to be his father. In the first hours of uncertainty, I prayed that he would remain here on earth to finish his mission in life..to inspire and give strength to others. He has started that mission almost immediately back in Iraq when he was still laying on the gurney and yelled out a Ooh Rah. His mission has just begun.I am typing this thank you for him, his eyesight in his good eye is still a little blurred.He was very honored that you all have said such wonderful things about him. He tells me that the people like you are what drives him to proudly serve this wonderful country of ours, you make sacrafice worth it. Thank you all so very much, from the Cee-gar Man and family

God Bless you and your brave husband!

I have been reading Free Republic for awhile but never have really felt the urge to post. I have always felt that our fantastic fighting men and women are the best this country has to offer and your post just made me want to let you know how I feel about them. So I took the time to register, just to let you know how much I appreciate what you husband and his fellow fighting men are done for us. I have just finished saying a prayer for your wonderful husband and his comrades in arms. God bless you and little Cee-Gar Man.

We thank you and your husband for his service and your sacrifice and pray his injuries heal as quickly as possible. My heart bleeds when I hear of one of our beloved soldiers injured like this.

Please hug him for us. Our military means the world to us. We can never thank them, or you, enough.

Good to hear he is recovering. God Bless this family and their service to this country!!!

The picture of your husband, should be hanging in every Marine recruiting office. He is the quintessential professional Marine. You have every reason to be proud, and he serves as an example to me, that this country is still turning out patriots and good men.

Mrs. Ceegar Guy,

You just made my day. No, my year! Thank you so much for letting us know Ceegar Guy is back in the loving arms of his family. We're all so proud of him and forever in his debt. I hope you will let us know if there's EVER anything we can do for you and your guys.

Have you ever heard the story of how we first discovered Nick? If not, and you'd like to hear it, just give me a reply and I'll write it up for you.

Speedy recovery, Nick. God bless you all.

Thank you so much for your message. Our prayers are with your family during this time of healing and determining where God's path for you leads.

Thank you for your commitment to serving our country. I have to echo other FReepers in saying that the joy on your face in that picture will always represent the victory in Iraq.

God bless and keep you.

God bless you, Mrs. Cee-gar man! (that just doesn't SOUND right! LOL!!)

You are indeed a blessed woman, and your son a blessed child...but I have the feeling that THEY are blessed too, to have you in their lives.

Please know that we SO MUCH appreciate his service to Ameria, and know too that we're here to help you, should you need it.

Thanks so much for posting this!

Welcome to FR. Please tell your husband he lifted our spirits too. His smiling face will always be the face of Victory for me and for many others.

You said it so Well!!! He was our inspiration for all the marines over in Iraq! We were looking at the true face of American manliness!

[windchime]

I am so sad to learn of Cee-gar Man's injury! Thank you so much for updating on his progress and sharing with us the kind of man he is.

The courage and dedication exhibited by you and your family are appreciated. God has blessed America with wonderful people like you!

Prayers for your family and for a rapid recovery for the man who depicts Operation Iraqi Freedom for many of us.

Thanks for the ping, RC!
