Billy,
You know I speak to you twice a day, everytime I look at the clock it's 7:12 and I say good morning or good night. It's never 7:15 or 18 so I know you are still with me all the time. Writing today as I prepare to give a presentation to the new class at Sea Girt, to tell your story, I can't tell you have hard it is to tell it over and over. But if it helps just one Trooper it's worth itl
I still remember exactly what I was doing and wearing on that beautiful July morning, waitng for you to call so we could meet. Miss you and you know I will love you for the rest of my life.
