"In Loving Memory..Its been a year..8/9/04

At the rising of the sun and at its going down, We remember them.
At the blowing of the wind and in the chill of Winter, We remember them.
At the opening of buds and in the rebirth of Spring, We remember them.
At the blueness of the skies and in the warmth of Summer, We remember them.
At the rustling of leaves and the beauty of Autumn, We remember them.
At the beginning of the year and when it ends, We remember them.
As long as we live, they too will live;
for they are now a part of us, as we remember them.
Rest in Peace Dear Soldier!!! We will NEVER FORGET!"

"Floyd three times in his life crossed the ocean on our behalf. He served in the U.S. Navy in Vietnam. Floyd was assigned to small patrol boat operations in Vietnam. He served in the Louisiana National Guard during the first Gulf War taking part in Operation Desert Storm.Then his final service in the Invasion of Iraq. Floyd was quiet man and a good and decent guy. He loved to laugh and he loved to eat. He was good natured and could get along with anyone. He could have easily gotten competely away from the military after Vietnam or the first Gulf War. Instead three times America called on Floyd and three times Floyd answered the call and stood through for us all. Floyd was a family man and he is an American hero. I am proud to have worked with and known this humble citizen soldier."
Henry Stringer Jr. of Jena, La
