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 sunlight 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.

A new hartford high school alumni remembering you and you’re service Gary steele

Dear Cpl George Sidelko, Thank you for your service as an Infantryman. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Happy Valentine’s Day. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage, guidance and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

When I got out of the Army, we moved to Golf Ave and I meet your dad in the store. He asked me if I had been in Vietnam and I said yes sir. Then he told me you had been killed there. I was sorry then as I am now for his loss, your death and all our brothers and sisters.

I was a few years behind you heard about you from coach edick he had many fond memories loved going to you’re mom and dads store it was a big deal then thank you for you’re service and god bless you Gary Steele a fellow new hartford alumni
