Dear David Taylor,

Your death as a hero to our country will never be forgotten. I don't know who you are but I'm thankful for what you were fighting for. It must have been really hard for you to have seen what you saw in the war. It must have been a tough journey for you. But you're in a better place now, so thank you for what you have fought for. Thank you and you will be remembered.

From
