Massachusetts National Cemetery

My father was an energetic,generous Man was a good heart and many talents. He has instilled in me how to protect myself from everything that this cruel world has to offer.. he has instilled in me discipline.. who has taught me many lessons and also taught me how to teach so we can make this world evolve as a people. Always the jokester he was.. always the life of a party.. there was always very eager to learn new things and teach lessons that people can learn and use for their whole life. Papa was definitely a rolling Stone.. It wasn't perfect and your day his mistakes but I always did the very best that he could and at the end of the day he was just a good man. He will be missed tremendously... The world should not have lost such an energetic loving person who was always full of life no matter what the situation was. Once a Marine always on my ring he always adopted and overcame. Sadly he battled ALS for almost 10 years. Is family is devastated at this moment. However his memories and everything that has been passed down through his legacy will live on. There is never going to be another person like my dad. I am probably the closest thing to being his clone... But he was truly unique and loved... We are just thankful and glad that there is no more suffering.. and she can go and do whatever he wants now... We shall meet again. Rest in love. Ssgt. Kevin A. Duarte. "Gus".
