THE WALL OF FACES

Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.

Mary Frye – 1932

Hello, my name is DrewBunting. I am a senior at Gridley High School. As part of my school assignment, I am writing this remembrance.

I am very sorry that you had to lose your life defending people in a foreign country of whom you probably knew very little about, but your cause was very much appreciated and will never be forgotten.

I am a high school student at Gridley High School and I am doing this for my U.S. History class and I just wanted to say thank you. You decided to have a respondsibilty to serve and protect our country. I didn't personally know you but I want to thank you for giving your life up to serve and protect people that you don't even know.

My school's social science class has given me the opportunity to honor those who sacrificed their lives to suit America's cause. Words cannot describe the courage and valor this soldier possessed. Great were the deeds of this man and great was the man. My deepest sympathy I send out to all who knew this man. I give sincere thankfulness, and God bless.

My name is Paige Porzelius and I live in Gridley, IL. I am a sophomore at Gridley High School and my World History class is posting remembrances for men who lost their lives as a result of war. Thank you for everything you have done for me and others who like to call America their home. You will be remembered forever and your actions will be remembered by those close to you and many others.
Thank you
Paige Porzelius
