Thank you very much for this detailed and moving tribute.

Palin ping list, onyx? I know a lot of people would want to read this if they were pinged, don’t know which list/s.

I have to go find some kleenex...

Very sweet. Kyle deserved this kind of service and it’s wonderful that so many took time out of their busy lives to see him off. Kudos to those who attended and helped in any way. God Bless them.

Very very nice! So glad he had a good send off. Glad that he was paid proper respect and that the Obamas didn’t show up!

Thank you for this account. I can relate to it on a much smaller scale when my son was killed, and at a slightly later memorial. My kind of people.

Very moving account of the many kindnesses to our Seals and their families who came to Texas to honor and say goodbye to Chris Kyle.

Thanks for this thread and follow-up. Good to see he was given a proper send off.

I pray for the wives, children, families and kind Partriots who made this tribute possible, that this honor will in part fill the holes in their hearts.

The Midlothian, Tx. Police Department paid the $45 a night for each room.

Interesting. I guess all cops aren't JBTs.

I was at the State Cemetery a few days after they service, there were still a few items located at his grave site.
