Happy Birthday, Tony ~
Dearest Tony,
How we all wish you were here to celebrate your 60th Birthday. Mom would make meatloaf, your favorite, and Pop would supply the banana, whipped cream cake from Barry's. After all these years, we think of you constantly. Time does not heal all wounds, but the time between tears does grow longer. You are loved and missed, more than you could have ever imagined.
Always,
Joan
*Perhaps they aren't really stars at all, but rather openings in the sky, where our loved ones can look down upon us...*

From Boot Camp to History
I remember our plane trip from Oakland to San Diego. I remember the words we heard for 8 weeks in San Diego, "Platoon 1068 on the Road" shouted by our drill instructor. When I saw you in Oceanside at the USO, you mentioned you were on your way to Nam. I asked you not to get yourself killed. You looked different. You were just done with BITS. You didn't look like a kid anymore. Next time I saw you was on paper on Easter 1968. I was a casualty reporter for the 3rdMarDiv. One of my dark days I'll never forget. I wish I would have said more to you. My children and grandchildren know of you. I'm one of the lucky ones.

NATIVE AMERICAN PRAYER
It is said a man hasn't died as long as he is remembered. This prayer is a way for families, friends and fellow veterans to remember our fallen brothers and sisters. Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning hush, I am the swift, uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight, I am the stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die
