I was an eighth grade science student and experienced your loss through your wife, my teacher. She had a profound effect on me that has never left me. She never said anything to us, but one day she came to school wearing black and she was so sad. Her memory, and thus yours, have stayed with me through the years, the price that was paid by you and many others like you is always quick to come to mind when I think about the price of Freedom, or the meaning of the flag.
Thank you.

Uncle Jim, you never knew me, but through my grandmother, your sister, I have come to know that we weren't that much different. I really wish that you could have made it back from that wretched war so we could talk about military life. I'm going to graduate in 2003 with a military science major. I come to visit your grave every Memorial Day and Veterans Day. I wish you could see our Veterans Day program at Fairview High, it is the best in the county. I have to go now.
From your nephew, |
