Athlete and friend
You beat me out in practice for a starting position on the line. You just outpowered me off that board. Your win was my gain, I got put on special teams while you did all that work. We both lettered thanks to your skills.
I went Navy and while on leave, mom told me what happened. I visited your folks and saw the front room. It was a memorial center with candles costantly sending prayers to Heaven for you. In December we both would have been 76 years old. I have been married 52 years now and have 12 children and they all know of you and the sacrifice you made for our country. Your greeting in Heaven when I, God willing, join you is something for which I look forward, Blessed Gummie, Tom Remlinger

Honored Grandson of a Friend
My grandpa, known to me as Abba, would tell stories of before, during, and after Vietnam. Most of which contained his good friend and football buddy, Gumisindo ‘Gummie’ De La Rosa. After high school Grandpa Mike was studying to be a marine biologist but was forced to enter the Air Force due to imminent drafting. During his stories Abba would always cry when reminiscing on Gummie. Abba died 2019 and just seeing this brought me back so many memories of stories. If there is a heaven they are there with each other smiling and in peace. God bless them both.
