We had our days in the sun at the beach and camping. There are still problably tire tracks in the old bowling alley parking lot from our "cruising". I miss the old days and the fun we had. VN took more from us than anyone will ever know. Keep the beer cold and the trunk open. We'll cruise and celebrate again someday. Don Fleming

To my friend Ronnie: Greenville gave her best again. Thank you for giving your all. Sorry it has taken America so long to appreciate what you and 55,000 others did. See you at the King's Table someday. Your friend, John W Godley, Classmate Rose High Class of 1965, 4412 N Maple Street, Spokane, Wa.

Well Ronnie, 40 years ago we graduated from Rose High School. We all had great plans to make the world a better place to live. Some of us are still working on this project, but you paid the price with your life. You did not die in vain. While the world is still fighting wars, America is still the Bulwalt of Freedom around the world, a Freedom you helped maintain. Thank you. The class will be holding our 40th Reunion in June. I'll be there and wil be sure to remember you. Thanks my friend. I owe you, see when God calls me home. John Godley, Friend and Classmate, 4412 N Maple Street, Spokane,WA 99205.

Thanks Friend: Another year has passed since you gave us your all. This makes 33. you have not and will not be forgotten. The sacrifice you made enables the rest of us to appreciate our freedom even more. That freedom is still under attack, and men and women are stil paying as you did, with their lives. Why? Because Freedom and Democracy is the only way of life worth living and dying for. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. JWgodley.
