Back then, if a man could walk, he would go into service. |
For the first time in 62 years, I have peace in my heart over the death of my good ole' buddy. |
He was a good, all-around American boy. And he's a fallen hero. |
He's finally home, and I know she is looking down right now, and she is pleased. |
Hugh was a fine boy. He was a good all- American boy. He was tall, slender and played basketball. He was the center. We were real close. |
I think many will come because he was a World War II casualty. He died in the service of his country. He deserves anything we can do or say about him. |
If I had known, I could have accepted his death better. I'm now satisfied with where he's at. |
This is a miracle. I always wondered if he had been shot down ... or if his plane had gone down in the ocean, if he was hanging from his parachute in the jungle. |
