Uncle Jack,

I salute you, Sir. You fought and died with honor and dignity in an unpopular war. Though I was never lucky enough to have met you, I love you and you are my hero, Uncle Jack. So I'll see you when I get to Heaven. I know you'll be the one standing Post by the Pearly Gates.

SEMPER FI, MARINE, SEMPER FI!

Your nephew,
Ed Nash

My Brother, we were separated in this life, but we will meet again.
On August 10, 1988, I finally found the family I thought I had lost forever.
Because of your bravery and love, I was able to see all of them - except for you and mom.
Know that I always have and always will love you and miss you.

Love from your sister,
Irma Ann Gorbey Glanton
