THE WALL OF FACES

The photo of the racing car was taken at Seekonk Raceway in Seekonk Ma. John Andrade is on the left. Pretty sure the car #81 came from John street address.
You are not forgotten John.

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. I am saddened that so few have posted remembrances for you. As long as you are remembered you will never truly die.

DEAR SPECIALIST 4TH ANDRADE,
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE AS AN ARMY GRUNT. IT IS THE 9/11 WEEKEND WHEN WE HONOR THOSE WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES, IT IS A GOOD TIME TO HONOR YOU TOO. REST IN PEACE.

Dear SP4 John Dutra Andrade, sir

As an American, I would like to thank you for your service and for your sacrifice made on behalf of our wonderful country. The youth of today could gain much by learning of heroes such as yourself, men and women whose courage and heart can never be questioned.

May God allow you to read this, and may He allow me to someday shake your hand when I get to Heaven to personally thank you. May he also allow my father to find you and shake your hand now to say thank you; for America, and for those who love you.

With respect, and the best salute a civilian can muster for you, Sir

Curt Carter

John is buried at Gate of Heaven Cemetery, East Providence, RI.
