THE WALL OF FACES

Dear Mark, Classmate of 1968, LAHS: You represented your Borough, County, State, & Country, making the greatest sacrifice a soldier could. We will always be in debt to you & your family. I remember you as a good student, a fine athlete, & a quality person. May you continue to RIHP. Sir Dean A. Morrow-LAHS Class of 1968

Mark, I remember sitting in class and hearing the beep come over the PA system announcing you had been killed in Vietnam. Eternal rest grant unto Mark, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon this very nice guy.

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.

As long as you are remembered you will never die...

Mark, yet another year goes by. You will never be forgotten. Your sacrifice shall never be forgotten. Rest In Peace Mark with your Brothers in Arms.

I have never forgotten April 24,1970 and I have never forgotten you and Guelig. I have thought of both of you 1000 times during the past 50 years. Semper Fi Brother, Kirk
