Hello, First let me tell you that I was the first person by Sfc stencils side after the attack on that base . My name is former Sgt Cassidy. It was my second tour of duty in Iraq with Sfc stencil and although I thought I knew just everything about combat it was this great man that showed me that I in fact new nothing about how to maintain discipline amongst the stressful environment we where in. And even if we didn't see eye to eye all the time he taught me a lot. It brings me to tears thinking about that day everyday. The recapping of all the events. And yes just like his son said in an earlier post. I ask why, but let me tell you sir. Your father was in every way a HERO. He saw those rockets coming in. And still made a selfless choice to get them soldiers to cover first. I will never forget

Hey dad , its 4:28am Thursday July 23,2015. It's Monkey you know your the youngest from deko. It's been 7 years since you passed. I was only 13 and had way more to learn about you. You left me, my brothers, and sisters with an empty heart. I occasionally dream about talking to you, mom says it's a good thing, that when we dream about you we are talking to you in spirit. Anyway I'm a sophomore in college, Ini well he struggling with your passing still I think he has it the worst, and as for kiana she just had a baby. The baby looks just like you , but she named him Grayson. Ini had 2 kids by the way too named Omari and Kennedi . I think from time to time mom misses you, sometimes we gather as a family to reminisce on your love. Anyways I love you, we all do I just wish you could be here to see me graduate and walk me down the aisle. -Love Jamera

SFC Stanciel will never be forgotten. I am an Air Force Engineer that built that base where we lost him. He brought us there and came to get us...such a happy go lucky guy who was taken too soon...not a moment passes without remembering him. I am headed to Afghanistan for yet another tour with the Army and cannot help but remembering SFC George Stanciel......Hope you are doing well brother...

I never met SFC Stanciel but I am indebted to him and his family for their sacrifice. My husband is currently serving at FOB Gary Owen. I pray every day for all the soldiers that have gone before him and will come after him. May the family find the peace that SFC Stanciel now has in the hands of the Lord. Sincerely, LeAnn Rodriguez

George, It's been almost a year, and it seems as if it was yesterday. Having Kiana with us this summer made me feel like I had a part of you that I don't want to let go of. I think it hurts more now because it is time for her to leave. This is hard. You always knew I loved you, but God loved you more. Growing up, you were always a protector. The last time I talked to you keeps playing back in my head like a broken record. I love you so much that I find it difficult to keep writing. Until we meet again in our fathers house I will miss you. Love always, Your sister Raeann

SFC Stanciel was my first team leader I had in the military. I met him in JAN 1993, at Schofield Barraks, Hawaii. He was also my roomate. He was hard on me at times, but it was always to make me better. George Stanciel was a great leader and mentor. I am truly saddened by his passing. But I do know he is in a much better place. George....you are a true hero and beloved man. I know you are in heaven brother and I'll see you when I get there. SFC Matthew R. Bacon

George, I never knew you.. I was just browsing and noticed your picture. First, let me say to the family you left behind. I will pray for your strenght and comfort that only God can give. I am grateful to George and all the other soldiers who fought for my freedom. We are free, because of the brave men and women in uniform. I will pray for your little daughter, I was also a Daddy's Girl and I miss him so much. God has given George his wings and a new and happy life in heaven.

I am correcting my mistake from the first tribute I sent you. I would always correct you and the rest of the family by using correct grammar and punctuation. I put a common in the wrong place and maybe this is a sign from God to let me know self correction comes first. I miss you more than words could say, but I know you are in a better place because I know God love you more than I do. Your aunt, Ann

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say... but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay. I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above. Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love. Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight. Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night. That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through, God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you." It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone. As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on. I need you here badly; you're part of my plan. There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man." God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do. And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you. And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight. God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night. When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears. But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain. Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain. I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned. But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand. But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er. I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before. There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb; but together we can do it by taking one day at a time. It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too... that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you. If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain, then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain." And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile, knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile. So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low, just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go. When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind; I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind. And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free, remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me. Ruth Ann Mahaffey (author) ©Copyright 1998-2008
