THE WALL OF FACES

Semper Fi, Marine.

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

Although we never met personally, I want to thank you Jack Armond Perry, for your courageous and valiant service, faithful contribution, and your most holy sacrifice given to this great country of ours!

Your Spirit is alive--and strong, therefore Marine, you shall never be forgotten, nor has your death been in vain!

Again, thank you LCPL Jack Armond Perry, for a job well done!

REST IN ETERNAL PEACE MY MARINE FRIEND

Amazing Grace how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now am found, was blind, but now I see. Thank you for your talents, your service, your time, your devotion. You are not forgotten. God bless, Jack.
