It won't replace the one stolen, but coins are being sent to Jeremy Lasher's family after someone took the one from his grave over the Memorial Day weekend. Jeremy's cousin Andy Maxfield was sent a message from a retired Vet who heard the story, was just as appalled as the rest of us  and wanted to make things right.

The coin/medallion was left on Jeremy's grave three years ago by Kyle Castle, who was in Afghanistan when Jeremy was killed in action. Lasher’s mother Vicky Arnold says ‘it’s irreplaceable. We’re hoping that whoever took it will realize, to them it has no meaning. It’s not worth anything financially. It means more to our family. It makes me sad to think that somebody would take anything from grave, let alone the grave of a fallen hero, and on Memorial Day.'

The medallion was even secured recently with double sided tape ‘just so it wouldn’t get moved in bad weather and is somebody decided to pick it up, it wasn’t going to come up easily. I was hoping that few seconds it took to pry it off, their conscience would kick in,’ explains Arnold.

It's nice to hear the coin is being replaced but if anyone anyone has any information on the original coin, you can email amaxfield81@yahoo.com.
