And so, my son, hail and farewell. You lived abundantly, you fought valiantly, you kept your faith, you died bravely, you have your life that we who live may enjoy the blessings of freedom, democracy, individual liberty and the American way of life. No man can give more. God bless you for the precious memories you have left us. Rilie R. Morgan, Editor, Walsh County Record
