I am John Holmason's grandmother.. This is his first Christmas in Heaven.. He was killed along with 9 of his unit on Dec. l, 2005. Just 20 yrs. old.. Very loved and missed by his family. John died doing what he thought was right for his family and his country.. Rest in peace my dear grandson and all the others that have sacrificed so that we may remain free. God bless you dear boys and girls. My son Matthew Moquin was also a Marine.. l976-2000 Died from Lymphoma. Sincerely, Carole Moquin
