THE WALL OF FACES

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

On the remembrance of your 74th birthday, your sacrifice is not forgotten.

Semper Fi, Doc

I will be going to the Vietnam Memorial Wall tomorrow to honor you and remember all of the good times that we had together in such a short time. Joanne will be with me to also honor your good buddy, Kurt Edie who lost his life in Vietnam, as a corpsman with the Marines, almost 4 months to day after you. Vicki McMurray-Kysor

I met Dave in 1965 while he was stationed at Balboa Naval Hospital and I was visiting a friend who returned home after injuries in Vietnam. I was in nursing school and Dave and I became very close. He loved my family and we loved him. Devastation is the only word that came to mind when I was notified of his death. He was a warm and tender man, and corpsman who gave his life for our country. Rest In Peace. Love, Vicki McMurray-Kysor
