Dear Patriot Guard Members,

I know I spoke for a second Fri. night with many of you, however, I wanted to be sure to reach all of you, thus the email. >From the bottom of our hearts we thank you for honoring [our son] Sgt. 1st Class Matthew R. Kahler this past weekend in Granite Falls, MN. Because you are in the line you cannot see the visual impact you make, nor feel the honor of having this many people who don't know us or Matt give up a whole weekend to guard and stand in honor [him]. Thank you, whether you live in GF or came a long distance. May God Bless and enrich your lives a hundred fold for honoring [our son], Sgt. 1st Class Matthew R. Kahler. Sincerely, Catherine Kahler Orth on behalf of the Iowa Contingent of Matt's Extended Family
