THE WALL OF FACES

DEAR SPEC 4 ARROYO,
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE AS AN ARMY GRUNT WITH THE 12TH CAVALRY REGIMENT, 1ST CAVALRY DIVISION. THIS WAS THE UNIT OF A FRIEND'S TWIN. I HOPE YOU GREETED MIKE WHEN HE ENTERED PARADISE. REST IN PEACE.

Dear SP4 Jose Francisco Arroyo, sir

As an American, I would like to thank you for your service and for your sacrifice made on behalf of our wonderful country. The youth of today could gain much by learning of heroes such as yourself, men and women whose courage and heart can never be questioned.

May God allow you to read this, and may He allow me to someday shake your hand when I get to Heaven to personally thank you. May he also allow my father to find you and shake your hand now to say thank you; for America, and for those who love you.

With respect, Sir

Curt Carter

I remember growing up, when playing games were so much fun.
I remember learning much, like cooking, cleaning and things as such.
I remember laying down to sleep and looking forward to our tomorrows.
I remember feeling safe, and no one could cause me any harm.

I remember growing up, into the women I am now.
I remember learning much, like right from wrong and things as such.
I remember laying down to sleep and wakeing up and know you're gone.
I remember feeling safe, as if you hold me by the arm.
And all this feelings I feel today can not compare to any other.
I know one thing will never die, my love for you, My Dear Dear Brother.
Thank you for always being there for us, when you were.
Gone but never forgotten. I also want to take the liberty to say if Valentino Perez reads this, please, please contact me, via email, I am your aunt.
