THE WALL OF FACES

I never knew you; Mom and Dad did, but there's a moment indelibly marked on my soul, the day we found your name on The Wall. We were high school seniors, on our Senior Trip, spending a day running around D.C. I remember how profound that was, for Sandy to find your name. To this day it is a powerful reminder that freedom is not free, and we owe a debt of honor to you and all who lost their lives defending this nation. Memorial Day is soon...SSgt. Platt, your service and your sacrifice will ALWAYS be worth recognition by grateful Americans. Thank you.

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. We should be forever thankful for the sacrifices of you and so many others to ensure the freedoms we so often take for granted.

Janice, Dave, Bret and Sandy,
Yesterday, Memorial Day, I often thought of Bob. He was an inspiring husband and father, and I am honored to have known him. All of you were so loving and kind when as a new bride I moved to Albany and Clovis, and l fondly remember those times we shared. Bob loved his family dearly, and he loves you still. One day you will be reunited.

Dear SSgt Robert Platt, Thank you for your service with the 3rd Combat Support Group. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Memorial Day is this next weekend when the nation remembers all our lost. Time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.
