Gone but not Forgotten
I never knew Mike but George and Virginia told me many stories of him. I am proud to be part of a family that has served this country and lost a courageous son and brother. Long live the Foutz Phatoms.

do not stand at my grave and weep
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.

Remembering a Hero
Lt. Foutz was my Platoon Officer in VIETNAM. A Good Officer and even a Better Man. He was killed 21 January 1970. On 12 July of this year 4 Members of His Platoon had the Honor of meeting His 3 Brothers at the Wall in Washington. After 52 years I got to embrace Joe Frino, Roger Johnson and Bern Kelly my Platoon Members of long ago. Quite a day. Richard Cremer [email protected]

You are a Hero
Mike, I remember you as a lab partner in Biology at RHS, it seems like yesterday. You chose to enlist in the Army and were so proud of that. It was an honor to know you.
