THE WALL OF FACES

Some may think you are forgotten
Though on earth you are no more
But in our memory you are with us
As you always were before….

Dear Sp4 Donald Rupe, Thank you for your service as an Infantryman. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. It is Halloween weekend. Time moves quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage, guidance and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

Donnie I remember the day you and Kathy told us you were going to Vietnam. Ì don't think at that time any of us thought we would never see your smiling face again. We were all just kids and the majority fighting this senseless war that took your life were just kids.

Dear Donnie, I was just a little girl, nearly 10 when you died in Vietnam and that has impacted my life. I think of you often, have many questions, and talk of you. just wanted you to know

Dear SP4 Donald Lee Rupe, sir

As an American, I would like to thank you for your service and for your sacrifice made on behalf of our wonderful country. The youth of today could gain much by learning of heroes such as yourself, men and women whose courage and heart can never be questioned.

With respect, Sir

Curt Carter
