THE WALL OF FACES

A butterfly lights beside us like a sunbeam
And for a brief moment its glory
and beauty belong to our world
But then it flies again
And though we wish it could have stayed...
We feel lucky to have seen it.

Dear PFC Vincent Williams, Thank you for your service as an Infantryman. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. You are remembered. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

Private First Class Vincent Richard Williams, Served with Company B, 1st Battalion, 327th Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division.

Not a day goes by that I don't think about you! I think it gets even harder as I get older. I realize what a waste that war was. We lost so many men for what???? We were raised as brothers and we always will be brothers. Till we meet again Wayne

Always known by his middle name "Richard" or Dick we spent our childhood and teenage years together on farms in Perrysburg, NY. He returned from the war to a spot in a cemetery within walking distance of his family farm. Over the years he has never been forgotten and we often think what would his life have been like and how might our lives have been different if he had not been lost to us. Thinking of him still brings tears to my eye. Much loved and much missed. Jan
