honoring you.....

A butterfly lights beside us like a sunbeam
And for a brief moment its glory
and beauty belong to our world
But then it flies again
And though we wish it could have stayed...
We feel lucky to have seen it.

Dear Lcpl William Tucker, Thank you for your service as a Machine Gunner. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. It is Agent Orange Awareness Month. Time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it still needs your strength, courage, guidance and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

A fellow Marine

Gene was my best friend in boot camp, Platoon 373, 1964.
He taught us some judo when we got the chance. We got together a couple of times in Baltimore before we were sent to different duty stations. I still remember the day I got a letter from my mom with the news of his being KIA. I will never forget him.
