Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrance from Judith Radder is especially poignant. As long as you are remembered you will always be with us...

Thank you for your service, and for my freedom.

I lived a few houses away from Chipper ( his nickname) on Hubbell Ave in Beacon Falls , CT. Before he joined the Army I remember playing baseball with Chip, building gigantic snow forts and riding bikes across a bridge that would later bear his name. I was home the day the Army drove up our small street to tell his family he was killed in action. I recall my Mother crying when she saw the uniformed soldiers knocking on his families door. He was young...20 yrs old. I was 15. Still remember you Chip. RIP.

You were one of the brave that answered the call. You honored us by your service and sacrifice. We now honor you each time we stand and sing the words “THE LAND OF THE FREE AND THE HOME OF THE BRAVE”. Rest in Peace and Honor Hearne.
