THE WALL OF FACES

Dear Michael, to honor your memory and the sacrifice you made for our country I want to make sure your photo will be displayed on your birthday each and every year when the Education Center is completed, so it is with great pride and humility that I post this remembrance and picture of you. You are not forgotten and remain in the hearts of many all these years later. You have been designated to be one of God's special angels, along with the love of my life, who also sacrificed his life during this war 45 years ago. God Bless You, Michael, for being who you were and for all you did--we live in freedom to this day thanks to heroes like you.

I trout fish in and around your home town. I will look for your grave the next time I am up there. I would like to visit with you. I'd like to think that you liked to fish and hunt as much as I do. Rest well Hero, you are remembered.

Semper Fi, Marine.

Michael is buried at Malbone Cemetery in Wilmington, NY.

Dear Micheal,
My name is Katie, and I’m part of the Gridley High School Posting Project which we go and post remembrances for all of you who fought in the war. Our goal is to post a remembrance for everyone on here. I just thought that you would like to know that you are extremely courageous. You tried your best, and got us far. Thank you for all you have done for this country.
Sincerely,
Katie
