Finally, to the families and loved ones of Austin Anderson, Garrett Coble, Luke Sheets, and Stephen Luth, the goal here was to honor your beloved young men by showing them for the brave, faithful, extraordinary people they were. Austin loved to quote from the movie Braveheart—“Every man dies, not every man really lives.” They really lived. May the brightness of their souls help to light the way for us all.
