THE WALL OF FACES

I wish my mom was alive to see this...she missed her brother so much.. this is such a beautiful thing to see.. I wish I could have met you Uncle David.. Thank you for your sacrifice,. You are loved, you are missed!!

Sadly, I never got to meet David. He & his brother, Mike Pearish, sacrificed their lives for the rest of us. Mike came home, but passed away a few yrs later as a result of the chemicals used during the war. Words cannot express my appreciation & love. <3

Dear LCPL David Lee Skinner, 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.

May God allow you to read this, and may He allow me to someday shake your hand when I get to Heaven to personally thank you. May he also allow my father to find you and shake your hand now to say thank you; for America, and for those who love you.

With respect, and the best salute a civilian can muster for you, Sir

Curt Carter

David is buried at Westlawn Cemetery, North Liberty, St Joseph County,IN. PH
