CSM(R) George Miller (RIP)

It is with profound sadness that I provide the following notice: Yesterday CSM(R) George Miller, our Force Protection Officer, passed away due to unforeseen complications during surgery. What began as migraines a couple of weeks ago and then preventive surgery on Friday, resulted in George’s health taking a terrible turn for the worse, he was taken off life support over the weekend and passed away quietly in the presence of his wife. Our thoughts and prayers are respectfully with the Miller Family.

DAMN, George was a good friend, comrade, and soldier. His deep voice was distinctive and now will be missed as he will be missed.

Rest in Peace George, you deserve it brother.

Prayers to Kim and family.

Tribute to a Fallen Soldier.......

Gone,but not forgotten.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wn_iz...eature=related

God Bless,Rest in Peace Warrior.....

He was just a simple soldier and his ranks are growing thin
But his presence should remind us; we may need his like again,
For when countries are in conflict, then we find the soldier's part
Is to clean up all the troubles that the politicians start.
If we cannot do him honor while he's here to hear the praise,
Then at least let's give him homage at the ending of his days.......

Perhaps just a simple headline in the paper that might say:
OUR COUNTRY IS IN MOURNING, FOR A SOLDIER DIED TODAY. (author unknown)

The passing of our soldiers often go unnoticed and unsung by most of the world, remembered only by family and friends. Wish it were not so. May he RIP, his family will be in my thoughts and prayers.........

I realize it's a Canadian song,however I believe most appropriate for this occasion...

CSM(RET) George Miller

From the SWC CG:

It is with profound sadness that I provide the following notice: Yesterday
CSM(R) George Miller, our Force Protection Officer, passed away due to
unforeseen complications during surgery. What began as migraines a couple of
weeks ago and then preventive surgery on Friday, resulted in George's health
taking a terrible turn for the worse, he was taken off life support over the
weekend and passed away quietly in the presence of his wife. Our thoughts
and prayers are respectfully with the Miller Family.

RIP CSM, we'll miss your voice..

RIP, Sergeant Major.

Good to have known you.

Thank you for your service to our nation.

Rest easy now.
