THE WALL OF FACES

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

Antonio is buried at Puerto Rico Nat Cem, Bayamon,PR.

My name is Phoenix Marr and I am a senior at Gridley High School in Gridley, Illinois. My history teacher challenged all of his students to write remembrances for those of the men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice while serving this country. You will always be remembered for your amazing courage and outstanding performance! You were a brave man who stood by his country through thick and thin! Thank you so much, Antonio!

Thank you for your courageous fighting for America in Vietnam. I am a student of Gridley High School, doing a project on the virtual wall. The dedication to your country and your fight for freedom will never be forgotten. America is a great nation as a result of committed people like you.
