He was fighting for us
On that Friday
Under the midday sun
In Sadr City
He had left a young wife
And newborn son behind
To fight for freedom
And a better life
From his laughing blue eyes
To that big boyish grin
He was a fiercely loyal
Life-long friend
He was a jovial, strong
Big-hearted man
Who was a fanatic for sports
And a huge Yankees fan
He was so full of life
A joy to be around
It was a shock for all to hear
That he would be Baghdad bound
Now the time has come
To pay our respects
To a Soldier, Father, Son, Husband,
and Friend
Do Chris this honor
While I have you all here
Share his stories and memories
In each passing year
Keep his spirit alive
and he will always be near.In Loving Memory of
SPC. Christopher M. Duffy
