I'll always remember you as a prankster in class. It bothered me that you'd get into trouble with the teachers because of some joke you pulled on them. But you only got a kick out of it when they scolded/punished you - you'd only laugh! (Somehow, I thought that was cute about you!)

Even though we dated only a short time before you went to Vietnam, wonderful memories of that time spent with you have remained in my heart for over 35 years. I'm married now, but a day never goes by when something doesn't remind me of you. You are always in my prayers and you'll always remain in the deepest most secret corner of my heart.
