THE WALL OF FACES

You served with Doc Butsko and died in the same battle.

You are not forgotten.

Never forgotten.

Semper Fi, Doc.

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 sunlight 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.

As long as you are remembered you will always be with us....

HN Charles Louis "Doc" Bernard is buried in Good Shepherd Plot, #133D-3 of the Lake View Memorial Gardens in Fairview Heights, IL.

Your sacrifice is not forgotten.

Semper Fi, Doc.
