honoring you...

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.

For HM2 Cecil Wayne CAROTHERS, USN...another of Altoona's bravest of heroes, who gave his all for us

He loved us so.
Every day, in a hundred ways, he told us so.
In honesty, in affection, he told us so.
He loved us so.
Every day, in a hundred ways, he showed us so.
With loyalty and bravery, he showed us so.
He was our defender, and he kept us free!
He took an oath to guard us, and fought for liberty!
He loved us so, and we should know.
For we loved him so.
Hospital Corpsman Carothers, you were the very essence of DUTY!...HONOR!...and COUNTRY! You had been there and done that in Vietnam, saving Marine and other Allied lives there! You were one brave man who did brave deeds for our America! You fought for the right without question or pause as a medical corpsman! Your name and fame are the BIRTHRIGHT of EVERY American citizen! In your youth and strength...your love and loyalty...you had given all that mortality can give to defend liberty everywhere! Altoona is very proud of you! You had sacrificed your life so that freedom and justice may live! You had lived up to the code of conduct and chivalry of those who guard this beloved land!,,,an ideal SO NOBLE that it arouses in all, of us a sense of pride, and yet, of humility! I strongly and honestly believe that Avonmore's own Jill Corey, whom I admire so greatly and so immensely as one of my three top favorite songbirds of all time, the other two being Walton-on-Thames's own Julie Andrews, England's musical queen, and London's own Dusty Springfield, another thrush from England, would be very proud of your service to Amer4ica, and the sacrifices you made to keep us and our country free! Well done, Sailor! Well done, Corpsman! Be thou at peace.
