Rest in Peace old soldier.  I pray they bring your son the Marine, home to rest. I remember when he was declared MIA. Randolph K Hays _______________ Sandy & George:    Your father was a great person.  Sorry for your loss. Richard Seal ________________ Dear Rykoskey Family-- I grew up knowing about your family from my mother, who went to school with Eddie and told me about his sacrifice.  Our family has always kept yours in our thoughts and shared in our own way your loss of Eddie.  When I go to the wall in D.C., I always find his name.  I now offer you my family's condolences on the loss of your father and grandfather.  Now he no longer has to wonder what happened to his son, and that is something to take solace in during this time of grief. Stephanie Patterson Gilbert ________________ To Sandy and George,  Your Father will be deeply missed by all of us who knew him.  I played golf with him on the Wed night league at Cumberland. What a character.  I also went to high school with your Brother Ed and knew Sandy from high school. My deepest sympathy goes out to both of you. Gary L Wickard _______________ George and Rykoskey Family-  Our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time. Sandy & Randy (Rat) Hays _______________ Dear Rykoskey Family, I was very saddened to learn of the passing of Mr. Rykoskey, a true American patriot and hero.  I never met him, but knew of him and other members of your family through my research of LCPL Edward Rykoskey, his son, as I wanted to honor him by wearing his POW/MIA bracelet, which I proudly do, and will continue to do so until he comes home!  I had wished that Mr. Rykoskey could see his son come home, but now I truly believe that they are again together, father and son.  God Bless you all in this time of sorrow, your family is in my thoughts often.  Thank you for sharing these fine men and dedicated heroes. John Epley _______________ I think of your family every day when I put on my MIA bracelet of Ed. I think maybe today will be the day. My thoughts and prayer go out to you, George, and your sister and family. Your mom and dad are together again. I often look at our yearbook and think about how your brother's name got under your picture.  May God bless all of you. Tina Farrell Bitner _______________ Ed was an inspiration to the community and especially to us Vietnam veterans. I will sincerely share the family's loss. Don Warner _______________  Hi: My name is Winston Speir. I was in the Corps.  I have been wearing your son's bracelet for more than 20 years.  If you would like I would be honored to return it to your family.  God Bless and Rest in Peace!
