16 years gone this July

Allen, you were recently joined by a brother Marine, Gerald Ward from Lake City, FL. I cried when I heard he had passed. I remembered how you met him in Bay Pines VA and you started a friendship with him. You have a lovely 5 year old grand daughter named Julia and you would be so proud of her and your son. Your son has gone over and above his love to take care of his momma.
Miss you so much. Will see you again one day.

A dream of you today.

There you were. Walking about, enjoying a group of airplane enthusiasts and eating your favorite pizza. Never forgotten.
