THE WALL OF FACES

Cecil is buried at Barrancas Nat Cem.

"An God said who shall we send.I answered I am here,send me."

Isaiah 6:8

Facta Non Verba

Although we never met personally, I want to thank you Cecil Ernest Daw, for your courageous and valiant service, faithful contribution, and most holy sacrifice, given to this great country of ours!

Your Spirit is alive--and strong, therefore, you shall never be forgotten, nor has your death been in vain!

Again, thank you Doc Daw, for a job well done!

FAIR WINDS, AND ETERNAL PEACE MY FRIEND

In withering fields of fire, through booby traps and mortar bombardments,
even with the enemy in close hand-to-hand combat, when the call came
for "Corpsman Up!", you left the safety of your cover because one of
your Marines needed you.

It was your care that saved the life of that Marine. There were times
when you were not able to keep him with us. Even then, a hand held
and a soothing word from "Doc" helped to ease the passage of a dying
comrade.

Now we hold your hand and tell you that through all eternity, Marines
will forever be inspired by your example of courage, devotion and honor.
We remember you and will continue to hold a special place in our hearts
for the man called "Doc".

Rest in peace,
SEMPER FI
