Erevia from the newspaper accounts of his bravery and courage In the jungles of Vietnam, and his ultimate recognition in receiving the Congressional Medal of Honor. As a Vietnam veteran, I too am emotional for his loss but consoled that he was a dedicated serviceman with purpose and resolve. The fact that he was also Mexican American fills me with a great sense of pride because he was honorable and prevailed in life. His passing, although tragic, is a beginning for those of us who will remember him as a hero and extraordinary human being. May God Bless and keep you Sgt. Santiago J. Erevia for you are a great man and distinguished soldier.'
