Our son called from Iraq

Jody Allen Crowe — Mon, 07 Jan 2008 09:21:45 -0600

Our son called from Iraq Sunday morning and told us of the death of one of his highest regarded friends, Pfc. Josh Anderson. Our son is serving in Iraq in the same platoon as Pfc. Anderson out of Fort Stewart and had both their birthdays and the state of Minnesota in common. He told me Josh was like a parent to the others in the platoon. Not only was he the medic, he did the little things parents do, like having the chapstick or the throat lozenges to take care of the men in his platoon. My son wanted Pfc. Anderson's parents to know how much he was appreciated and how much he would be missed by his platoon.

My wife and I have the utmost respect for Pfc Anderson. Our heartfelt sympathies go out to Private Anderson's wife and parents. God be with you.

Our prayers are with you all

Josh was a great kid and grew into a wonderful man and father. My son Tony and Josh were friends since we became neighbors when the boys were just 3 years old. We will miss you. I know your Mom and Dad were so proud of you.
