I personally knew SSG Lo, and have kept in touch with him since leaving the military. Anyone who had met Edmond knows what kind of person he was, so much more than can be explained in words, truly an honorable person.
I'm proud of you and you'll always be missed. You've made the greatest sacrifice. Freedom isn't free.

As the wife of an EOD solider, I can tell you all this young man died trying to save the lives of others. My heart breaks for the loss to his family, his community and his unit. My husband and I will be at the service to show solidarity in the EOD community. Rest in Peace SSGT Lo.

I knew SSG Lo, he used to go swimming with me and a couple of his other buddies all the time at Fort Hood. He used to also attend dinner events, and parties. The thing about Lo was, he was always the good guy...never drank, never smoked. So responsible, and such a great and honorable man to look up too. I am deeply hurt by the loss of my good friend. And my heart goes out to his dear family.

God bless.

I am SSG Lo’s First Sergeant. He was easily the most liked Soldier in my company. SSG Lo has left an empty feeling that cannot be filled. He will be sorely missed and impossible to replace. – WE REMEMBER

An incrediable young man, Staff Sgt. Edmond Lo. Spurning colleges to first serve his country.... reading and thinking about sent shivers up my spine, and reminded that there is plenty good in this country still.

watched the video of SSG Lo arriving at Dover AFB. To see how our fallen heros are treated with love and respect, watch the HBO movie "Taking Chance" This info would have comforted me during combat.

One of his closest friends, Marilyn, wrote me about Sgt. Lo and his family. This certainly brings the war close to home. As a child I lived in Manchester and went to Central High School.

My heart bleeds for St. Lo and his family.I have the chills knowing another great hero has gone "to rest." May his family and friends recognize that he is always with us, still watching, caring, and guiding each one of you. With blessings, and deepest sympathy.
