20 JULY 1999

Bruce, we only met once when I was very young. We were cousins and am sorry I never got to know you. I still remeber the day my dad got the news even though I am much older now. As I watch a new war unfold on TV, my heart is heavy for you and those who went with you. I know you are in a better place now, but saddens me just the same. God speed to all those who serve and have served so that I might be free.

I've thought about you often over the years. We had some great times. Peace. Tommy Clelland
