THE WALL OF FACES

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The many remembrances from your wife Judie are moving and reflect her eternal love for you. As long as you are remembered you will always be with us….

Ron, Ronnie, Carissa, and I miss you and think of you everyday. Your wonderful grandchildren are such images of you. You would be so proud of them. Talbot has earned his Master's and is working for the Corp of Engineers, Chance just graduated from the U of I and is in the National Guard, and Olivia just graduated from high school and is headed to college this fall.

On occasion of Memorial Day - 2023, I remember Ron.

Ron and I were classmates and roomates in Army OCS for 6 months and in Army Flight School we shared our lives living in a trailer court next to each other for about 6 months at Ft Wolters, TX and another 6 months at Ft Rucker, AL. I had the duty and priviledge of escorting Ron's remains/casket from RVN to his wife/family for burial in Idaho. My old friend you are always in my thoughts, 53 yrs later.

Dear Ron, I was a participant in your final flight, I will always remember that awful day. You and all the lost members of our Troop will not be forgotten. Rest In Peace, Phil Lucca
