THE WALL OF FACES

Say not in grief he is no more, but live in thankfulness that he was.

You will forever remain in our hearts and prayers

Dear Sp5 Arthur Newkirk, Thank you for your service as a CH-47 Helicopter Repairer. The 52nd anniversary of the start of your tour is in 3 days. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. It’s a New Year, but not necessarily better. Time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

Dear SP5 Arthur R Newkirk, sir

As an American, I would like to thank you for your service and for your sacrifice made on behalf of our wonderful country. The youth of today could gain much by learning of heroes such as yourself, men and women whose courage and heart can never be questioned.

May God allow you to read this, and may He allow me to someday shake your hand when I get to Heaven to personally thank you. May he also allow my father to find you and shake your hand now to say thank you; for America, and for those who love you.

With respect, Sir

Curt Carter

Arthur is buried at Baldwin Branch Missionary Baptist Church Cemetery in Bladen County, NC.
