My deepest sympathy to Adrienne, Maggie, Max and the rest of the family. Myself and Aiyanna attended the ceremony and we were so saddened. Your son was an amazing person who touched so many lives during his short time with you. We love you and are here for you guys. Much love to you.
We knew Wallace from West Tennessee Skydiving and we’re grateful for the opportunities we had to jump with him. To Wallace’s family and loved ones, you have our deepest sympathies.
Several weeks ago our son messaged us that there had been an incident out of Meridian with a t-45. Without knowing a name or any details, we knew that a true all-American young person was lost to a family. To fly that plane requires an exceptional person. Deepest sympathies from PA on your loss with appreciation for the honor and courage that Wallace exhibited in defense of our country.
I am very sorry for your loss. My grandson was a friend of your son in Meridian trainning like Wallace. It hurt us like it was our grandson that died in the accident. It is like a family member that was loss. I am very proud of your brave son and all the men and women that are protecting us. May God be with Walace now and your family
Please accept my heartfelt condolences on the loss of Lieutenant Burch. America has lost a Warrior/Patriot, and I have lost a Shipmate. Fair winds and following seas, Sir.
