My husband, SPC. Thomas Kirkwood, is in the Army National Guard. He is currently in Afghanistan going through his second deployment. He is a wonderful husband and father.

Thomas is my best friend and soul mate. We have been married 3 years this coming October. We have a little boy, Dallas, who will be 2 August 11. The two of us miss Thomas with all of our hearts.

We just want Thomas to know that everyone here at home supports him, loves him, and always keeps him in their prayers.

Our family are members of Buck Creek United Methodist Church, and thanks to their support we are all able to cope/deal with this deployment.
