Flag-waving Marine Veteran in Lutz passes away 

A true patriot, may God bless his soul. You have been relieved of duty enjoy your r&r marine. Thank you for your service.

What a lovely man. He reminds me of our Captain Tom here in the UK. My condolences to his family.

Thank you for everything you have done and given to your country.

Your work on this earth is done sir, your time to rest has come. Thank you and all of the brave men & women who have served and are serving in the face of danger to protect us at home and abroad. This world would be a very different place were it not for your kind, although many of us have lost sight of this, not all of us have...

Take a rest Marine someone else will take the watch.

This is a beautiful tribute to a man and his country! At ease Marine and rest in peace.

Hope we can get some supporters out there to honor him with our countrys flag

He’ll always will be waving that flag.

I'm an Australian, and I felt the pride to be an American, even for just a few moments. Rest in Peace Boddie 🧡

Bless his heart!! Praying for his family and friends.

Rest in peace ,Sir.

Rest In Peace Devil Dog.

Rest easy soldier. Sleep for those who can’t. Save those who are silent thank you for you’re service sir.

Rest In Peace.

🙏🙏🙏

Bless his heart and Rest In Peace brave man

He has earned a special place in the hereafter.

Rest in piece. I think the community should get a flag posted there permanently. Maybe even a plaque too.

Patriotic Americans like Boddie help President Trump keep America great. R.I.P. You are a true hero to your country.

Beautiful God bless

Semper fi R.I.P.

RIP

Rip old hero

I saw him standing on the corner many times. He was a good, very good man. And, it's sad that Covid is taking all of the Good People from us.

God the US is weird.

Heaven has another marine. God bless ya, Boddie.

Hoorah

Eternal rest, light and peace to you.
