AMAZING TRIBUTE by 15 year old Rylee Preston "Soldier's Light"

Awesome, thanks Lt Col Charlie Brown

Thank you, my friend Lt Col Charlie Brown for sharing the music video tribute of 15 year old Rylee Preston performing her song "Soldier's Light"
Rest in peace SPC Justin Rollins!

Background on the song from the link
"In 2007, Rylee Preston's family friend, SPC Justin Rollins, was killed in Iraq while serving our country. Inspired by Justin's Story, Rylee began writing the lyrics to what would become, "Soldier's Light".
In Justin's memory, and the many Americans like him who gave their lives for our freedom, Rylee wants proceeds from the song to help the "Ride For The Fallen" and to build a memorial that will incorporate a light "forever lit" to remember the fallen and to honor all who have served. Dedicated to all our armed forces, all who have served."

"Soldier's Light"
Lyrics
"You missed my first step,
My first words, Dad.
This house is filled with pictures of someone I never had.
I know I've known your voice.
I think I know your smile.
Mommy says your clothes haven't smelled like your clothes in awhile.
I know I've read all your letters that say how you're doin' it for me.
And Mommy says how you're keepin' us safe even though it might not be easy to see.
We'll leave the light on until Daddy comes home.
We'll leave the light on for our soldier.
To remember all the fallen, fought, and all of those who served.
The soldiers that were beaten, and forever burn.
We'll leave the light on!
Late at night, when Mommy thinks she's all alone
I hear pray to God
"Lord, I don't know how much longer I can hold us together.
Alone, it's becoming so hard."
I know I've read all your letters that say how you do it for me.
And Mommy says how you're keepin' us safe
Even though it might not be easy to see.
Mommy, we'll leave the light on until Daddy comes home.
We'll leave the light on for our soldier.
To remember all the fallen, fought, and those who served.
Soldiers that were beaten and forever burn.
We'll leave the light on.
...
We'll leave the light on until Daddy comes home.
We'll leave the light on for our soldier.
To remember all the fallen, all those who served.
The soldiers that feel it and forever burn.
Let's leave the light on."
