THE WALL OF FACES

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrance from your former teacher Bob Potter is poignant and reflects his admiration and respect for you. As long as you are remembered you will remain in our hearts forever….

Thank you for serving America. You put your life out there to keep us safe.

I met Paul at Villanova. Spent many hours sitting in Pi shop with he and his buddies. But he was kind in a way that no one I had ever met was. It was deep inside him. It was who he was. Now I am old and have only met a few that equaled his depths. Thank you for being my friend.

My name is Robert Howard Potter and I have been teaching English at Canterbury School, for the past 30 years. Every fall, in your honor, I offer an elective course titled Literature of The Vietnam Conflict. As long as I teach students here in the classrooms where you once sat, I will try to help them understand the conflict that took your life. Rest in peace. You will always be remembered at Canterbury.

I server with Paul during the 77 day siege of Khe Sanh, he was a great Marine and his loss was tragic to all of us who served with him.
