THE WALL OF FACES

I sat next to mike for three years at central tech…he was funny, helpful and gracious …he was respected by our classmates….he had great smile..his laughter was contagious..
We were part of the mech engineering program..our soph year there were 25..junior year 17…and our senior only 12 graduated from the program..mike and I were one of the 12….he was so much brighter than me..
Was reading a first hand account of the bravery of our soldiers in the war and I thought of mike….honored to have sat next to him, to have heard his voice of joy and reason.. he made me a better person ..

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. I am 72 and have lived a long and fulfilling life. It is tragic you never had that same opportunity. May you rest in eternal peace.

May those who served never be forgotten. Rest in peace LCPL. Cutri, I salute your brave soul. My heart goes out to you and your family. Semper Fidelis!

Mike had a heart of pure Gold. Always ready to lend a hand. We worked on construction all summer together before we joined the Corp. Mike was a true hero. Miss him and love him. God Bless Marine my brother. SEMPER FI.

Thank you for your service!
