TRIBUTE – CPT Robert E. Bagwell, US
ARMY
Bob,
as I knew him, met all new fellow soldiers with a smile as if he had know them
all of his life. He knew how it was in the bush at the time when I arrived. It
made others and myself feel more at ease. Many times I would go into the bush
for days before returning to the Base Camp. Bob would receive cake or sometimes
cookies from his wife. The first thing he would do upon our return was call us
into his tent and share the goodies from home with us. That was the kind of man
I remember, one who cared about his fellow men. God Bless his family and keep
them safe.
Lt Emory rests in Cedar Lawn Memorial Park, Roanoke, VA
