THE WALL OF FACES

Although we never met personally, I want to thank you Joseph Francis Convery, Jr., for your courageous and valiant service, faithful contribution, and your most holy sacrifice given to this great country of ours!

Your Spirit is alive--and strong, therefore Marine, you shall never be forgotten, nor has your death been in vain!

Again, thank you PFC Joseph Francis Convery, Jr., for a job well done!

REST IN ETERNAL PEACE MY MARINE FRIEND

I look at your picture just about everyday and often find myself wondering what you would have been like...had you lived. I was only eight when you died, but I have some cherished memories. My children see your picture, and ask me what you were like. I tell them what I can remember. How ironic that my youngest son should bear your likeness. People tell me all the time..... "He looks so much like Joe"

Your memory will never fade.

I never had the pleasure to meet my fathers brother but can only imagine the courage he had. To go through what he did at such a young age is purely remarkable and part of Convery History that we are so proud of. I cherish the way my father speaks of him and know that though we have never met we are in some ways connected. I hope that I too will have the strength and courage that this young man showed and I know that his memory will live on forever!

~I love you daddy~
