Crossing the Bar
Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,
But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep
Turns again home.
Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;
For tho' from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crost the bar.

Mr. Topor,
Sir, as a fellow Marine I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served with the USMC during WW II-especially at Iwo Jima. It was the history and accomplishments made by you and your fellow Marines there that all of us Marines who followed in your footsteps have always tried to live up to. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
Semper Fi Devil Dog!

Joe was our letter carrier on Highland Ave. in Malden for many years. My 5 children looked for him daily and thought that he was the best.
We all thought the world of him, he was always so kind and cheery!
We had no idea of his incredible sacrifice to our country, and our respect and admiration has grown further.God bless your family, and know that so many others will think fondly of him and keep him in our prayers.

Joe, we will all miss you! You were always a big hit with the young and old Marines at the Semper Fidelis luncheons and other Iwo Jima reunions. You were always faithful to friends, family and country. The Marines would always line up to get their photo taken with you. Say Hi to my Dad! Semper Fi, Kevin
