To my friend Steve

We were friends and classmates all through our growing up years in Niles (Fremont). I remember once when we were in grade school, at lunch time that you had in your sack lunch a can of tuna and you said you always liked it that way. Well, my friend, when I go to the Wall I will bring you a couple of cans for you to eat. Steve, you were my friend and I'll always remember you in my prayers. You gave your all and served your country with honor. My friend and comrade in arms, you will not be forgotten.

From your friend,
TSgt Gene Downing, USAF (Ret)
