My son Army Ranger Kristofer Douglas Scott Thomas was killed on 17th February 2007 in the Afghanistan serving his country in the most honorable way. It became clear to me that words could not adequately or sufficiently describe the meaning or value of Kristofer's short life. Kristofer was a strong and beauitful young man. Though my heart is filled with much sadness, my message is not one of despair, but one of hope, love, and celebration. Anyone who had the good fortune of spending time with Kristofer can attest to his wit and good humor. He was a prankster who loved to laugh and more importantly, he loved to make others laugh... something he did with ease. He was the type of person who lived life to the fullest, and took advantage of each minute. I know Kristofer will live on in our hearts and we will share his memory through our laughter and our joy!
