FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF MASSACHUSETTS MARINE CORPS LEAGUE:
Please accept our deepest regrets and condolences on the passing of Marine Veteran Richard Holder.
There is a poem written by a Marine in the Korean War.
It goes like this,
Do not stand by my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep.
When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds circling in flight.
Do not stand by my grave and cry ...
I am not there. I did not die.
I am a Marine now and always
protecting and serving our
Supreme Father into infinity.
Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.

We have lost a dear and good friend. There are so many fond memories of Rich and some challenging. He had a great sense of humor, loved dancing and enjoyed a good debate. Although words offer small comfort in this hour of sorrow, I do wish to express my sincere sympathy to the family.
