THE WALL OF FACES

As a young boy I watched cousin Larry play basketball at Lewis County HS in WV. When I say his name on the Wall, I was very sad. He was so young. Always missed by our family, cousin Brent from Canada.

Larry and I served together in Vietnam and became buddies. I was impressed by his friendliness, bravery and Christian faith. We sometimes read the Bible and sang hymns together. I'm thankful for our brief friendship. May God bless and comfort all who knew this terrific man.

Dear LCPL Larry Steven Heater, 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, and the best salute a civilian can muster for you, Sir

Curt Carter
