Nashville National Cemetery

Hi, my name is Luis Ortiz. I am born and raised in the Capitol City of Nashville, in the State of Tennessee. I want to take a moment to say thank you for your valuable and amazing service for the greatest nation in human history, the United States of America, and its citizens. You are definitely not forgotten by me. Our country is going through a critical moment but I pray to God and our Lord Jesus Christ that We The People will win. It’s been a personal and internal battle to see which party is in favor of America, its people, and its ideals. I wish the Founding Fathers could be alive to give us advice on how to maintain America great. Day by day threats such as anarchism, communism, Terrorism, organized crime, Satanism and other anti-America ideas are in existence and it’s difficult to discern. Yes, Satanism is a religion in which Satan is worshipped. Personally, I’m in favor of the Republican Party because it was founded by President Lincoln during the American Civil War to abolish slavery once and for all. It’s also the business party and I wish to see the day in which people of every race thrives economically. Please help us to keep America great. Last but not least, thank you for your service to We The People of the United States of America. God bless you and have a blessed day.
