THE WALL OF FACES

I lived a few blocks from you, we played solder when we were so young. I returned home from Vietnam in June of 1967. When I saw you had paid the ultimate price for your country. I could not go to your wake, it was too hard to loose another friend. I think of you often, and you will be forever young

John is from my high school and area where I live. Wanted to pay my respect to this hometown hero. Thank you for your service and sacrifice John. You are not forgotten.

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrance from your high school friend Joel Boydston is especially poignant. As long as you are remembered you will always be with us...

As your 72nd birthday approaches, your sacrifice is not forgotten.

Forever 18.

Semper Fi, Marine

We were great friends in high school at LTHS together. So many fond memories of us riding around in Mike's car with Chico, you and me.
I can still hear that high-pitched chuckle-like laugh of yours my friend. It was from the heart and with gusto. I was stunned when I returned home and first learned that you didn't make it. I think of you often these days.
I wish you were here, Bronco. Here's hoping we meet again down the road and can once again laugh out loud together.
Oh, and since there are no non-military pix of you, I'm posting your junior year class photo (sorry about the resolution).
Love ya, Bro
