You have given me passion, love and hope Richard and for that, I'm forever grateful

Richard. Man, from time to time I sit and wonder what life would be life if I had you around. You were my cadet mentor and I miss those days we had in college. The fact that you took me under your wing and helped me out with land navigation and OPORDs is something I will NEVER forget. As the new year approaches, I wanted to step back and remember you. No one deserves to pass away well before their time but I know that you were committed to your duty and that you accepted that mission to serve...

In Memory of Richard ~ (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...
