The 39th year
Dear Wilbur,
It's me. Your Sister words are very touching. All the crying since then really hurts every September 16th. They are your relatives but we were Battle Brothers, a relationship only few share and understand.
I don't have to tell how much you are missed but how much you are remembered. God bless you my brother and peace and love.

ALWAYS LOVED AND MISSED EVERYDAY
THIS IS MY DEAR BROTHER. I MISS HIM EVERYDAY AND THE HURT AND
TEARS WILL NEVER END UNTIL THE DAY I MEET HIM AGAIN.
HE WAS ALWAY MY LITTLE BROTHER AND I ALWAYS TOOK CARE OF HIM.
EVERY DAY HE SPENT IN VIETNAM, I WAS GLUED TO THE TV TRYING TO FIND OUT NEWS ABOUT WHERE HE WAS. ALWAYS THERE WAS A FEAR DEEP INSIDE OF ME THAT HE WOULDNT MAKE IT HOME. HE WAS LISTED AS MISSING FOR THREE AWFUL WEEKS. THEN ONE SUNDAY AFTERNOON THE
CAR SHOWED UP. MY LIFE HAS BEEN FOREVER ALTERED. HE WAS FUNNY
AND MISCHEIVIOUS BUT I ADORED HIM. SOME DAY I WILL SEE HIM AGAIN. THAT IS THE ONLY HOPE THERE IS.
