To the Relatives and Friends of Pvt.
Rex. w. Willey-Dear People: As the
chaplain who oficiated at the funeral
service of him who you love and
mourn. it may be of some comfort to
you to hear from me. In every in
stance, we always try to have a chap
lain Of every mans faith, Catholic or
Protestant, to minister to him. Every.
thing possible was done by the nurses
and doctors to help save your boy.
But the disease that gripped him was
too virulent. We are all very sorry
that this had to be. and extend to you
our sympathy in this hour OF sorrow
that has come into your life and home.
We held our little funeral service
In the hospital chapel where his com.
rades and friends were gathered. His
cofin was decorated with French and
American flags. After the service, the
procession formed. The firing squad
marched ahead, the clergy. the hearse,
the pallbearers and the escort follow

that every soldiers heart goes out to
you in sympathy.
The cemetery in which your loved

record and photograph. The number
of his grave is 247, and his serial mum.

at his grave with his name. rank. Or.

his death. The French women, they
who have lost fathers, sons, brothers,
nephews, uncles and husbands, show
their sympathy to the distant mothers,
sisters, wives and daughters Of Amer
lea by decorating the graves with
flowers and keeping them beautiful.
These wOmen of France show a most
wonderful spirit.
My poor words may be of little com
fort to you for the absence of one

for the voice that is still. | do not

and help you to feel that the Spirit,
the invisible part of ourselves, the
soul which we cannot touch but which
we know within ourselves as life, can
die, but lives on. And may the
suffering and sorrow which our ma
ton must bear, help us to realize the
precious value of life and help our
to be stronger, nobler and moro

of God may increase among us. May
