Our family was presented with my brother's Silver Star at a ceremony held at Fort Sheridan, Illinois, in 1970.

I'm remembering my brother on Veterans' Day 2002.

I still miss you and think about you every day!! What a waste!!!!

Love,

Words can't describe the void left by your passing. Always a true friend, you are thought of often. I believe in my heart, we will meet again, my friend.
