THE WALL OF FACES

Vincent was cousin to still my be fiend, Joe Criscitelli. I know live in Ohio, and belong to several Vet. Org. here. One is the Jefferson County Vets. Assn. We are putting up a wall with memorial bricks of those who served honorably in the military. I donated 3 to this effort. Vincent, John LaDuke (KIA 20 Apr. '67)from Paterson, NJ, Roger Baxter, (KIA 6 May '70) from Junction, Tx. God Bless these heros, they should always be remembered. The wall will be dedicated Memorial Day, 2013.

Semper Fidelis, Marine!

I have many happy memories of growing up with Vinny ....that was nearly 30 years ago. Theses memories are lessened somewhat by the honor and pride that we all share in knowing him and respecting the contribution of giving his life for all of us. My two sons have heard the stories of Vinny as a friend and they know his ultimate gift to us. I visited his Mom a few months ago and she still prays with him each day ...so do we. Thank you Vinny .

Vinnie was a school friend. He was full of life and I think of him often when I think of Viet Nam. I'm sure he was very courageous. Thank you for serving our Country. Fran Cantisano Aboyoun
