THE WALL OF FACES

Elmer worked ony dad's sawmill as a Sawyer in spangler. He was the nicest guy. I was only 15 or 16then so he seemed souch older. I remember when he got drafted,and then heated he got killed in Vietnam. I think about him all the time.i knew his dad bill, and I knew frank who I think was his cousin. The barrs were good people. I will miss him forever

I'm one of his many nieces, and I don't remember him because I was a little kid when he died, but I think about him and wish I got the chance to know him.

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrance from your nephew Tim Meece is touching. As long as you are remembered you will remain in our hearts forever...

DEAR SPEC 4 BARR,
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE AS A COMBAT ENGINEER. WATCH OVER THE U.S.A., IT STILL NEEDS YOUR COURAGE. ADVENT IS HERE, AND CHRISTMAS IS APPROACHING. WE ARE THANKFUL FOR YOU. GOD BLESS YOU. MAY THE SAINTS AND ANGELS BE AT YOUR SIDE. REST IN PEAC

I only remember seeing Elmer once in my life. He stopped at our home in St. Louis on his way to Fort Lenord Wood. I remember him in his uniform eating breakfast with us before I went to school. I have a daughter now that is the age he was then. He was so young. Far too young.
