Dear Carol,
Thank you for this (notice). I remember Mary Case, mostly from 7th grade at Walter Reed School. She was a very nice girl. That grade seemed to be rather difficult for many of us in many ways.
Love,
Betty
Thank you so much,
Betty.

| Carol,
Thank you so very much for
the rapid response! I actually spent 27+ yrs in the Air Force, but see
how one could think Army based on being buried at Ft. Sam Houston. Thank you, Darrel. I was feeling badly that I missed your note last night, but I actually spent most of the day in bed, so I wasn't able to address it until this morning. I've switched you back to the Air Force where you belonged all the while. I have about a dozen friends who were transferred from here in Fayetteville down to San Antonio, and of that number only a couple were Air Force, but I knew it could well go either way. Thanks again for your service to our nation. |
Y'all take good care of each other! TYPHOONS FOREVER! We'll Always Have Buckroe!
Love to all, Carol

Abide With Me
Words by Henry F. Lyte, 1847
Music by William H. Monk, 1861
Abide with me; fast falls the
eventide;
The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide.
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, O abide with me.
Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
Earth's joys grow dim; its glories pass away;
Change and decay in all around I see;
O Thou who changest not, abide with me.
Not a brief glance I beg, a passing word,
But as Thou dwell'st with Thy disciples, Lord,
Familiar, condescending, patient, free.
Come not to sojourn, but abide with me.
Come not in terrors, as the King of kings,
But kind and good, with healing in Thy wings;
Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea.
Come, Friend of sinners, thus abide with me.
Thou on my head in early youth didst smile,
And though rebellious and perverse meanwhile,
Thou hast not left me, oft as I left Thee.
On to the close, O Lord, abide with me.
I need Thy presence every passing hour.
What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.
I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless;
Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if Thou abide with me.
Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes;
Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies.
Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee;
In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.
