THE WALL OF FACES

Diane E. Bingen My maiden name was Diane E. Konitzer! Why did one of you mark my other post inappropriate! I was his fiancé, and your mother was holding me so I didn’t fall in as they were lowering his body into the ground! I was with Stan the night before he left, and Stan was watching Rodney! I went to the County Fair with your mother 2 months after his burial! I met Mary when she came home for Christmas! Your parents had me over 3 or 4 times while Stan was in Vietnam! I am really feel insulted that you said my post was inappropriate! I went to a wedding reception at Fox and Hounds with your parents, and caught the bouquet! Stan would be deeply insulted that you would find it inappropriate for me to post a remembrance to him! Diane E. Bingen. P.S. Randy had wheels under their Christmas tree!

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrances from your siblings Mary and Rodney are touching and reflect their admiration and respect for you. As long as you are remembered you will remain in our hearts forever….

We were siblings. Arguing, slamming doors, tattling on each other. Some if my girlfriends thought you looked like Elvis. I never saw that! Then you joined the army and kept volunteering for another tour of duty.
It's been 50 years. 50 years.
Mom and Dad are both gone now. Passed within just days of each other. I never managed to call often enough. Now, seems hardly a day goes by when I don't wish I could talk to one of them. Hope you are all together.

Your fiancé! I never forgot you, ever! You were a true hero! I was so devastated about how and when you died! I truly loved you! YOU ARE THE BEST OF THE BEST!
