We Will Remember

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.

Thank you

I never got to know you, Uncle Dick, but I have found some of your fellow Marines. I am getting to know you through them and their stories about you. You were a good friend, a wonderful son, and an honery brother. I know you would have been an amazing uncle. They say the Valkyries only carry the souls of true heroes to Valhalla, and I know, without a doubt, that they carried you there with honors. Rest well, and thank you for all you gave.
