Thinking of You

Michael, I remember living next door to you until you left for Vietnam. I remember your Mom and brother, Victor. I did receive the letter from you sent from California asking me to visit with you in California before being shipped to Vietnam. I am sorry I didn't answer it. I think of you often.

Love,
Kathleen Jones

In Memory of a Neighbor and Friend

You will always be remembered, Mike. I'll never forget all us neighborhood kids playing in the yard. In the alley playing baseball, and the sad day I heard you were gone. My brother, sister and I will always remember you. Thank you for serving when you were needed. I only wish you came back.~Kathryn Stanley-McClanahan
