THE WALL OF FACES

Dear PFC Michael Gentry,
Thank you for your service as an Infantryman. Happy Thanksgiving. 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.

Dear PFC Michael Dale Gentry, 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 Mike Gentry from Roxboro High School. A quiet polite and smart young man. Friends with Bobby Massey, Jimmy Pearce, and Lanny Whitt. As our 50th reunion approaches memories of past classmates arise and Mike's name is usually one of the first mentioned. I wish he knew that I visited the Vietnam Memorial and found his name on the wall and said a silent prayer for him.

We, the Roxboro High School, Class of 1964, salute you, Michael Dale Gentry, for your service to our country and for making the Ultimate Sacrifice.

I remember Mike he was always pleasant a very nice guy

Mike and I worked together in an aluminum factory after high school in 1964. In August, I went into the Army for 4 years and he went off to college. Several years later our rolls were reversed. He was off to war and I was off to college. You could not ask for a better friend than Mike and I am continually sadden by this casualty 50 years late. The Roxboro High School Class of 1964 salutes our dear friend for life and what he gave to the country we all love. God has a place for you!
