In Honor Of Sgt Riayan Tejeda
I remember the day,"Gino" came to my business and said goodbye. I laughed at him and
asked him "where are you going now?" I will not forget his response,"I am going to fight
for your freedom" and he smiled then walked away with a wave. I said, be careful and that
was the end of that.

He was truly a good soul. I pray for all are women and men serving our nation. May God
bless everyone and their families.

Love,

Viv
