Jacob D. Bower

West Point, 2015

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Patricia Cal Baker on July 23, 2011:

My son is a WP cadet class of 2014. He just went through this last year. Like Jacob, he has all the marvelous attributes that West Point demands of their youth. I cannot imagine what Jacob's family is feeling now, the soaring pride and love we feel as parents of these special young men and women - the pain and yet pride of the seperation at R day, the searching of Beast photos looking for our own Waldo... and now the pain, loss, and hurt that that his family feels.

My deepest and most heartfelt sympathy is with you at this incredibly sad time for you. Please understand you are not alone in these feelings, all of us connected to WP through our children are with you and are feeling and praying for you.
