Once you were addressed by the Supreme Allied Commander, Who approached with open genuine candor. For he must have seen that you possessed a common trait to fulfill the mission regardless of the fate. You were seem right from the start. To possess the courage of a hero's heart. At nineteen you were fearless and brave Even if it meant dancing on your own grave You promised to do your best, in battle you did engage Despite being surrounded by a mountain of carnage. You established a record of service of which to be proud, For you fulfilled everything you ever vowed. Grit and determination got you through the wars and strife Faith and obedience in our Lord will prevail in this life Ed, you are a patriot and a hero to many a mortal When the time comes you will grace God's portal Till then we will cherish every moment you are in our midst And feel we have been eternally loved and blessed By a man of your stature, kindness, humor and caring We feel so privileged to spend our lives in total sharing. All during our lifetime, we are but a heartbeat away From ,joining our loved ones on any given day. Regardless of what the future brings. Our wish is that you are carried on Eagles wings. © Carol G Oliver Ed Wolski requested by his wife WOLSKI, retired Chief Master Sgt.
