Godwin 3rd Ordway

West Point, 1955

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Dick Dinwiddie on April 22, 2003:

I remember Ski as he used to come in from football practice - very tired after having worked hard under Earl Blaik's guidance. He was not always in the best of humor then - just tired. I know it must have been difficult for him to study under such circumstances. That he made it through four years was a tribute to the efforts he made. Bob Camp's tribute to him was justly deserved. May he rest in Peace with all the others of the Long Grey Line. He was a great company mate and a great guy. God bless you Ski from all the Company B-1 guys!
I was never fortunate enough to have served with Ski, but he was always a great guy.
May all his family receive the blessings and peace from the Good Lord.

Captain Cosine
