Dear Captain Harmon Donald,
Thank you for your service as an Infantry Unit Commander. Memorial Day just passed, and we remember all you who gave their all. It has been too long, and it's about time 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.

We never had the chance to meet unfortunately, but I'd like to know more about you. You are my father's father, my grandfather, and someone I admire. I wish I could follow in your footsteps like my older brother had, but I won't be able to because of my spinal issues and surgery, so I hope you can forgive me for that. Sandy, my grandmother, missed you till the day she died, even after her accident, and I hope she's found peace with you now. I'm sorry we never got the chance to meet, and where ever you're watching me from, and I hope I don't disappoint you. I know I don't think about you as often as I should, so I hope this helps you know I do think about you, and that even someone you've never met misses you dearly.
