Marque was a student at Appalachian State Univ. In the ROTC there and a 4 year member of the Army National Guard. He was a great young man who valued the military and law enforcement like most of my family are in. Thank U Botl for letting me share here.

    Prayers for you and your family, Ray. I can relate to your loss. My own nephew was killed in Afghanistan two years ago this month. I'm terribly sorry for your loss. He looked like a fine young man...
