THE WALL OF FACES

Joe is buried at St Margarets Cemetery in Otsego, MI. BSM PH

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

I never had the opportunity to know you, but I am very thankful for all that you gave when our country needed you the most. I am honored to be related to you. You will be in my prayers.

Joe I never got to meet you but gary said your were his hero and role model I want to do a rememberance for you on march of this year, look down on me and help me find your friends so that I can tell the story of what happend on 3-30-69. Your are so brave and it really gives many of us strength and resolve to remember the history of vietnam and keep it alive out of respect for men like you. Breath on me and point me in the right direction. The RED Diamond never runs 5th inf Div (1st Bde) hh company Mech
