Let us remember those young soldiers who changed the course of history with their sacrifice. Let us commit ourselves to remembering their sacrifice by cherishing the freedom they bought for all generations that follow. Honored by Laurent Lefebvre [June 4, 2024] |

Though I never met you Danny, my father spoke of you often in our home. I remember you like I knew you. He never forgot you, nor shall my mother or I. You are a hero in every sense of the word. I'm glad my father had a friend such as you during WWII. I hope you're enjoying being together again. <3 Honored by Lori Paparteys [2014-06-17 13:31:37] |
