THE WALL OF FACES

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.

As long as you are remembered you will always be with us....

I remember Roy, he had just returned from R&R.I was there the night he was killed.we fought hard that night. RIP

Roy and i got drafted and reported on the same day. He went to the Marines and i went to the Army. He was a good person and i'm sure he was a good Marine. RIP Roy

DEAR LANCE CORPORAL BALDWIN,
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE AS A MACHINE GUNNER. SEMPER FI. TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY, AND I FEEL IT IS IMPORTANT TO HONOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DIED IN SERVICE TO THIS NATION. AND VETERANS' DAY IS APPROACHING, MAY THE SAINTS AND ANGELS GUIDE YOU. REST IN PEACE.

I am the chairman of Commemorative Events for the Christiana Tillson Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution. We are organizing a Vietnam War Commemoration Ceremony to recognize and honor all Vietnam War Veterans. In addition to honoring all Vietnam War Veterans, we would like to specifically recognize those killed in action from Montgomery and Macoupin Counties, Illinois. Representatives from the Department of Defense Vietnam War 50th Commemoration will be presenting lapel pins to all Vietnam War Veterans, and the NSDAR will present Certificates of Honor to Veterans. The Defense Department will be recognizing the family members of those who were killed in action. If you would be able to participate in our ceremony on April 1, 2017, please email me.
