If you were still here…
I remember you as a grandpa growing up and an incredible father to my mom. I remember you pushing me on the swing with my siblings and coming over for holiday meals. I remember….
I remember none of that. That never happened. You fought for our country and lost your life when mom was only 8 years old. I’m sorry you didn’t get to see her grow. She is 62 now and she’s just as incredible as ever. She’s incredible because of you.
I am your granddaughter and I wish you were here today. I never knew you, but I think I am a lot like you. Thank you for giving your life for our country and I will never stop telling your story till the day everyone I know knows it.

Memories
I have very fond memories of growing up with my older brother, Larry. One memory is when he was six and I was three we walked to our Great Grandma Baldwins. As we left, Mom told him to hold my hand and look out for me when we crossed the street. He reached down and took my hand and held it the two blocks to her house. This was the start of Larry watching my back. Through the years he was always there with his easy smile, quick wit or always making life more enjoyable.
I miss him dearly and I will always love him.

honoring you...
Thank you for your service tour country so long ago sir. The fact you served two tours in Vietnam attest to your courage and devotion. The remembrance from your niece Cherie Conley Reed is especially touching. It is fitting that your alma mater, Cal Poly, honored you as part of a campus memorial.
