BY Anonymous on Apr 30, 2008 | | | | Think of me as one at rest. For me you should not weep, I have no cares, no toubled thoughts for now I am asleep. The living breathing me that was is now forever still, and time goes on without me as time forever will. Those of you who liked me I sincerely thank you all, and those of you who loved me I thank most of all. It matters not if time began, if time will ever cease ? I was here, I used it all and now I am at peace.

BY Anonymous on Apr 30, 2008 | | | | The Soldier Poem~~I was that which others did not want to be. I went where others feared to go, and did what others failed to do. I asked nothing from those who gave nothing, and reluctantly accepted the thought of eternal loneliness.... should I fail. I have seen the face of terror; felt the stinging cold of fear; and enjoyed the sweet taste of a moments love. I have cried, pained, and hoped....but most of all, I have lived times others would say were best forgotten. At least someday I will be able to say that I was proud of what I was.... A Soldier ~~ Thank You Staff Sgt. Whitehead for Fighting for Freedom and America. Your ultimate sacrifice for all American's including myself will not be forgotten.~~Stevie Coan, Louisville, Ky.

BY Anonymous on Apr 30, 2008 | | | | There beside a grave she stands, a folded flag in her hands. A silent teardrop on her face, her brave young child has entered grace. She does not hear the sermon said, just memories run through her head. The child she held so long ago, the child with faith she let go. The child who heard the nation's call, and in the end gave it all, without thoughts of self, thoughts of freedom and little else. The bugle plays TAPS in the wind, a mournful song it does send. A reminder to us all, that for freedom, this price was paid, and her sweet young to rest was laid.~~May friends comfort you. Faith uphold you. Loving memories heal your heart.~~Norma Coan Louisville, Ky.
