Richard Freeman Des Jardien

West Point, 1968

Be Thou At Peace

Dear Lorraine,
Chris and I are so sorry to hear about Rich's passing. As a fellow classmate, I knew Rich since we were plebes together in Company B-2. He was always smiling and upbeat, no matter what the circumstances, and always fun to be around. I especially remember the good time we all had at our 40th reunion. Rich loved reunions, and he loved visiting with old friends! It was he who first assembled the roster of all our B-2 classmates back in 2003. He will be sorely missed, especially at our upcoming B-2/D-2 reunion next year.

Jeff
