This memorial was created in honor of Naval Aircrewman (Helicopter) 2nd Class Joseph P Fitzmorris of West Monroe, Louisiana.

The Department of Defense announced today the deaths of two sailors who died in a helicopter crash July 19 in Oman:

Senior Chief Aviation Warfare Systems Operator Sean P. Sullivan, 40, of St. Louis, Mo., and Naval Aircrewman (Helicopter) Second Class Joseph P. Fitzmorris, 31, of West Monroe, La., were declared deceased following an extensive search of the wreckage and the surrounding areas of the crash.

A MH-53E Sea Dragon helicopter went down on July 19th about 60 miles southwest of Muscat, Oman, during heavy-lift operations. A separate MH-53E from the HM-15 squadron provided rescue assistance at the crash site and three of the five crew members were safely recovered. Further search and rescue efforts were called off on July 20th. The incident is under investigation.

Jesus taught that someday "all those in the memorial tombs" will be resurrected. (John 5:28) Jehovah is the Creator of all life. Should it be hard to believe that he can re-create life? Of course, much would depend on Jehovah's memory. Can he remember our dead loved ones? Countless trillions of stars fill the universe, yet God knows the name of each one! (Isaiah 40:26) So Jehovah God can remember our dead loved ones in every detail, and he is ready to restore them to life.

Our hearts are with the Fitzsimmon family and those who loved him. He is one of America's heroes and will not be forgotten. He lived a life of honor and sacrifice and courage in the face of great danger. His love for his country, his family, his fellow soldiers and his friends will live on as a legacy to a life well-lived. With deep gratitude and all honor... Sandra Allen, Soldier's Angels Georgia
