Upcoming Memorial Day Observance
We can tell Memorial Day is coming with the wreaths that hang on front doors, and the small red, white, and blue American flags that line the grass covered graves of the Veterans’ cemeteries all acrosse America. One of those graves is yours, and we honor your life and your memory on this Memorial day.
May we never forget your example and the true cost of our freedoms. You with those who love you paid that cost, and America will be forever indebted.
With respect, always.

My Big Brother
It's been 53 years since you passed. Never a day goes by that I dont think of you and the wonderful times we shared growing up. I remember you taking me to the ice cream store in your 1960 Chevy Impala and I felt so proud and on top of the world. I recall when we taught me how to ride my bike and roller skate and picking me up when I fell always r ed minding me to never give up. All of these memories are embedded in my being. The only regret I have is that you never got to meet my husband, children and grandchildren and that you were never afforded the opportunity to get married, have your own children and live your life as you saw fit. November 13, 1968 was one of the worst day of my family's life. Our parents never recovered from the events of that fateful day. I pray that you are at peace now. No 20 year old boy should ever experience what you had. I miss you and will love you always. Our memories have now become my children's and grandchildren's memories. I will never forget you as you live on in them.

Memorial Day 2021
This year, as every year for many, my wife finishes the wreaths she makes for every Memorial Day and our American flag is raised in remembrance, as we observe this somber national holiday. You and our loved ones whose names also are inscribed on the Vietnam Memorial are in our hearts. My family and I will never forget the cost of our freedoms, and the men and women who have and continue to step forward to keep America safe.
With respect, always.
Curt Carter
