THE WALL OF FACES

It’s been 51 years ago today. You are still missed so much. Losing your buddy Steve Davenport last Fall was a shock; he was an amazing friend & dedicated to carrying on your memory. Granny is slowly fading away & we know soon you will be reunited. Mom has been amazing & talks about you alot. Until we meet again....

Thank you for your service and your sacrifice. Thank you for stepping up and answering your country's call. Rest easy knowing you will never be forgotten.

50 years ago you gave your life in service to our country. 50 years ago my grandparents lost their only son; my mother lost her only brother. 50 years ago I was little girl who couldn't grasp the depth of the pain they were feeling. Now I understand and I cannot fathom living 50 years without my son or a brother. Uncle Bob, you are loved and missed each day. Mom takes such good care of Granny, who is 98 years old and finally slowing down a bit. Mom made a tabletop memorial for you that included flowers, a wooden engraved box presented to Granny in 2016, a statue of Jesus hugging a soldier and your Army picture. On June 6th as Granny was on her way to bed, she stopped at the table and after a few seconds of looking at your picture she said "he sure was handsome, wasn't he?" You sure were. Until we meet again…

Robert was the best friend of one of my best friends. He and I were both in the Americal Division and served in the same area of operation. We were both from the same hometown and attended high school about 5 miles apart. Bob was killed about a month after I left Viet-Nam. His name is on the back of my remembrance vest.
