"Arch", We met on the island of Guam in 1975 as young men. We shared The Lord, sports, family and  friends, our careers, but most of all, an everlasting love and friendship for one another over all those years.  I will miss you, My beloved Brother. RIP! Wallace Dean Jr. "DeanO" sends with love.

Dear Cousin, I  can hear you saying Semper Fi. We shared many memories over the years and I  will always remember your smile. Thank you for  coming to sit with me while I was in the hospital and always checking to make sure I was ok.  Ann and children stay strong, your father always talked about you, he was very proud.  I  pray  that God will continue to Bless you,  Love cousin Marie

Dear Cousin, I'm  glad we talked last month and I told you how much we loved you. You always tried to keep in touch and was there when my Mom was  hospitalized in Pennsylvania. You are a special man that served your country and left a legacy of beautiful children.  God Bless your soul and all that love you. Ann, thank you for loving my cousin. You are a strong woman and raised strong children. I thank God for you and pray for your continued strength. Love you.

LONG STORY SHORT...................
Pops, My Man!

Hi, daddy. It's Che-Che, your nurse assistant and daughter. I miss you daddy and LOVE you so much. Why you go so soon, daddy? I know you want to stay longer but very tired.  I miss going everywhere with you. Now I only have chores around the house because you left me so soon. Please keep watch over mommy, me, and the rest of us.  God bless my daddy.  

You, my dearest is indeed one of the "few, the proud, and the chosen one." You served a solid 20 years commitment to the United States Marine Corps with ease. You also took on the challenge of raising an army of your own comprised of six boys and two females while dodging the dragon lady by your side. But we managed and we did well in retrospect, my love.  Thank you for your service in keeping us safe, free, and motivated.  Fortunately, this is anything but "goodbye" because I know where to find you when my calling brings us back together again. Hooorah, Marine. Carry on my beloved, until we meet again. Hu guiya hao, asagua'hu (I love you my husband).    

Well what can I say pop. YOLO. You only live once. You had a good run. Served your country for 20 years had 8 beautiful kids with mom. You did your best raising us with mom and your best is good enough. Dad like to talk a lot give us all advice that none of us really wanted but it was nice to see him always trying to make us all better people. We miss you we love you and know your smiling down on us from the upper room. War dawg out!
