"He was a hero in the way he cared for others, he was a hero for his devotion to his mother and his father and last, he is a hero for the sacrifice he made for our nation."
Those were the words echoing through the hallways of Neshaminy High School as Middletown Township Supervisor Chris Thompson reflected on fallen Iraq War soldier Jae Sik Moon.
Moon, a 2003 Neshaminy graduate who was killed in action on Christmas Day in 2006, was remembered by his friend Thompson, along with other friends, family, teachers and area officials at a memorial service on April 14.
