It is so important for us all to acknowledge the sacrifices of those like you who answered our nation's call. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness. Rest in peace with the angels.

jimmy was i the group of guys i went to school with at st rita grammar school. we would play softball together in the summer. jimmy was the best 3rd baseman u would ever see. i was in basic training when he died. i came home too late for the funeral, it was a very sad day in the neighborhood. jimmy will always be missed and we talk about him when we get together.

My Name is Denny I was in 4th grade at the time of your death. Our principal came on the overhead speaker and asked your brother Patrick to please come to the principals office. I sat directly across from him in School. I looked at him like oh boy are you in trouble. When he returned from the principals office he was crying and I asked him are you okay and he said No I have to go home my brother was killed in Viet Nam. I never forgot that day and I even attended your wake at Sullivans. Last summer I visited the Viet Nam memorial with my 3 boys
and we looked up your name. Thank you for your service and your sacrifice
you are not forgotten 47 years later my friend.
