THE WALL OF FACES

I remember my parents talking about Paul Ballard after he died. Never knew him, but I went to school with his nieces and nephew, and knew his family. Finally went to St. Joseph's (St. Peter Section) to pay my respects. Thanks for your service.

DEAR SERGEANT BALLARD,
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE AS A GRUNT WITH THE 1ST CAVALRY. THIS WAS THE UNIT OF A FRIEND'S TWIN. SAY HI TO MIKE IN HEAVEN. ELECTION DAY IS NEAR AND VETERANS' DAY IS APPROACHING - SO IT IS IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER AND HONOR ALL OF YOU. MAY THE SAINTS AND ANGELS GUIDE YOU. REST IN PEACE.

I visited your grave site at st joseph's think of you often my friend you will forever be remembered, my children know of your sacrifice for your country, tom lombardi

The war may be forgotten but the warrior will always be remembered!!!!rest in peace Paul. :-(

I was proud to call you a friend in school "65" and even prouder to call you
a brother from Vietnam. It's hard to believe that I may have been the last from
home to see you a live. I remember the hospital stay like it was yesterday and
seeing Coach Hays while we were there. You will be remembered!
