I was however blessed with being in several of his classes in high school. What I can say about Micah is that he was a cool guy, someone who was always there to laugh at a joke, and someone who never talked bad about anybody. It hurts my heart to know Miach is no longer with us, but I am sure that The Lord needed him home for something important. I consider myself blessed and extremely lucky I was able to have known such a wonderfull person. Thank you Micah for defending our freedom. You are my hero.

Life, like a mist, appears for just a day, Then disappears tomorrow. All that we are can quickly fade away, Replaced with tears and sorrow. If a man should die, can he live again? Hear the promise God has made: (Chorus) 2. Friends of our God, though they may pass away, Will never be forsaken. All those asleep who in God’s mem’ry stay, From death he will awaken. Then we’ll come to see all that life can be: Paradise eternally. (CHORUS) He will call; The dead will answer. They shall live at his command. For he will have a longing For the work of his own hand. So have faith, and do not wonder, For our God can make us stand. And we shall live forever, As the work of his own hand. (See also John 6:40; 11:11, 43; Jas. 4:14.)

I am proud that I knew him. I wish I had known him better. And to his brother, I wish you the best for you and yours, and thank you for serving as well. 97' Spartan Tue, 03 May 2011 09:08:34 -0700 Micah Gifford on January 19, 2011 https://projects.latimes.com/wardead/name/micah-s-gifford/#c44803 https://projects.latimes.com/wardead/name/micah-s-gifford/#c44803 I found this page when I searched my name on Google. At first I thought it was pretty cool that there was someone with the same name as me (same middle initial even!)but know that I've actually read about him, I am truly sorry to hear of his death. I never met him but I thank Micah very much for giving his life to help protect the freedoms of myself and all Americans! Only someone who is close to a saint could say what he did... a truly inspiring quoute from a truly inspiring person. His family will be in my prayers.

I thank him and his family for his dedication to our county. Thank you for keeping America free and protecting our beliefs. It's because heroes like you my very young daughter will be able to live freely in this wonderful country. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! Many your memory never be forgotten.
