THE WALL OF FACES

I never met you Uncle Ronald, but your story lives in all of us today. I remember visiting the Vietnam Wall when I was younger and seeing your name on there. Your sacrifice will never be forgotten. We love you. -Dakota White
Great grandson of Audrey Chittum

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

On the remembrance of your 80th birthday, your sacrifice is not forgotten.
