WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER

img
I grew up in David's hometown of Melrose, MA. David was 8 years older then me. I was in the same parochial school grade, as his sister Sandra. I was an altar boy, and the first funeral Mass I ever served, or even attended, was David's, on January 22nd, 1968. It had a lifelong lasting impact on me. When I was planning on visiting the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall in 2018, I knew that I had to find David's name, which I did. Panel 35E Row 10. I contacted David's brother Jeff, to let him know I would be visiting there. I met up with him after I returned home. I served in the U.S. Navy from 1976-1981. I missed the Vietnam War period by 1 year. I've always felt a connection with David, & just want to take this opportunity to thank him for his ultimate sacrifice, to go and fight, where his country asked him to. I also want to thank all of the other veterans, who served our country, defending it. Especially those who were KIA, and their families. Jimmy Tierney, Beverly, MA
