  9. Stephan was a veteran. He wore the uniform. He did his duty. He sacrificed his youth and endured the separation from loved ones. He served his country with selfless devotion. Now his battles are over. He is gone but not forgotten; for he will always have the undying gratitude of those he served and the respect of those who served with him. May he rest in eternal peace.

  19. • Our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Stefan Fonod. His fellow troopers of the 11th Armored Cavalry’s Veterans of Vietnam and Cambodia, salute our fallen brother. Steve served courageously in the face of a hostile enemy with the Regiment and it was our privilege to have him in the ranks of the Legendary Blackhorse Regiment. Our loss is that of another brother down and we will continue to honor his memory at our gatherings and at our annual reunion. He was an exemplary soldier. His name will be listed on the roll of our honored dead and in our newsletter, Thunder Run. But as our Burial Liturgy clearly states: “life has not ended, merely changed” and Stefan’s soul continues on an endless path. As we were together then (in Vietnam), we will be together again in the life hereafter, comfortably enfolded in the loving arms of our Merciful Father.
