Be Thou At Peace

Dear Uncle Marty,

I never got to know you, being you were struck down in your youth in Korea when I was barely one. I ask you to please watch over my young son, Kevin, as you watched over me in Southeast Asia. He was went to Korea last week to serve his country (I know you gotta have some pull there!).

Lovingly,
Your Godson Bill
