Condolence: Thank you Mary, for serving this country, and for pushing those gates just a little wider so those who came after you could go past... and I know, at your 'Next Duty Station" you will be standing by with pride as those who come after us, will go even farther...

Condolence From: Maggie Wallace, McGregor, TX
Condolence: I did not know Fran in person. However, I also served in the Marine Corps on Active Duty from 1965 to 1969, and in the Reserves from 1969 to 1976. Requiescat in pace.

from the Navy Hymn…..

Eternal Father, Strong to Save,
Whose arm hath bound the restless wave,
Who bid’st the might Ocean deep
Its’ own appointed limits keep;
O hear us when we cry to thee,
For those in Peril on the sea.

O God, protect the women who,
In service, faith in thee renew;
O guide devoted hands of skill
And bless their work within thy will;
Inspire their lives that they may be
Examples fair on land and sea.

Eternal Father, grant, we pray,
To all Marines, both night and day,
The courage, honor, strength, and skill
Their land to serve, thy law fulfill;
Be thou the shield forevermore
From every peril to the Corps.

But when at length our course is run,
Our work for home and country done,
Of all the souls that flew and sailed,
Let not one life in thee be failed,
But hear from heaven our sailors cry,
And grant eternal life on high.
