I met Lee the summer of 1966. We were both in the Upward Bound Program at UW-Whitewater. He attended West Division High School where he was a senior, and I attended North Division High School, where I was a sophomore. He was my first love and has always, and always will be in my heart. I have thought of him alot through the years. He was only 20 when he gave his life for his country. In my eyes he will always be a hero for the great sacrifice he made for my freedoms. I know we will meet again. Love always and forever...
