Rochester, New York
When Brian Schramm returned to his high school to answer questions about Iraq, he joked about the lousy food and was upbeat about the Iraqis he''d met. "I never saw him down," said his uncle, Eric Schramm. "He loved life. Every day was an adventure." But privately, Schramm had reservations about returning for a second tour of duty. "He didn''t want to go back," said his father, Keith Schramm. "He saw a lot the first time." Schramm, 22, of Rochester, N.Y., was killed by enemy fire on Oct. 15. He was based at Camp Lejeune. An honor roll student in high school, Schramm was known by friends and family for a contagious sense of humor and a depth of decency. He loved camping, hiking and playing soccer. "He was the most genuine person you''d ever meet in your entire life," said his close friend, Jon Zodarecky. Keith Schramm said his son realized a "lifelong dream" by becoming a Marine. He was planning to become a police officer after his second tour. "They told him a year," Keith Schramm said. "We were hoping he''d come home sooner. But not this way." He is also survived by his mother, Mary Ellen.

In Memory of Brian ~ (Debra Estep)
Holding you all in my thoughts and prayers.
The Wind on The Downs
“I like to think of you as brown and tall,
As strong and living as you used to be,
In khaki tunic, Sam Brown belt and all,
And standing there and laughing down at me.
Because they tell me, dear, that you are dead,
Because I can no longer see your face,
You have not died, it is not true, instead
You seek adventure in some other place.
That you are round about me, I believe;
I hear you...
