LEFT FOR DON LAVERNE BARTLEY

POSTED ON 1.31.2003

If I should die...remembrances for LTCOL. Don Laverne BARTLEY, USA...who died for all of us!!!!!!!!!

If I should die, and leave you here awhile, be not like others, sore undone, who keep long vigils by the silent dust, and weep...for MY sake, turn again to life, and smile...Nerving thy heart, and trembling hand to do something to comfort other hearts than thine...Complete these dear, unfinished tasks of mine...and I, perchance, may therein comfort you.
