17 Feb 2005 To Bruce, You will never be forgotten. You made it through once, and were lucky enough to get out alive. When you came back we argued over it, with me asking you why, for I felt once was enough. Just three short weeks later your life was taken. Our argument has haunted me all these years, for you had so much to offer besides losing your life over a war that made no sense. I will forever miss you. - CRIP Forever - From a proud comrade-in-arms, Frank A. Marabello frankiedaclipper@verizon.net
