Remembered Fondly
My dad, Gary, was in your class at AHS. We went on the Honor Flight this past year and I got to hear wonderful memories of you and your brother since he was in my parents wedding. We went to the wall and found your name. Dad just went to see your grave site last week as well. So glad I got to hear all about you. RIP

I remember.
As a fellow recruit of MCRD Platoon 3003 (1964-65) I remember when you joined our platoon from another previous platoon. Because we had the same last names, our platoon sergeant (McAvoy) assigned you to me to 'assist' is getting you 'squared away'. We got pretty close and eventually we both graduated and went our separate ways. Now I am an old man and still remember your smile and dreams that you shared with me. For those who are reading this, I know it appears I am talking to Rich in the present tense...well I am as he still lives in my head and is eternally young.
