CPT JAMES JOHN SHERECK

 

14 Mar 2005 Captain Shereck, In December of 2003, I was honored to meet with your brother, John James Shereck and his wife. We had a great visit and talked about you ... he misses you a lot. Then, shortly before Christmas, I visited your mother, Adeline. I brought a bouquet of flowers and had a great 45 minute visit with her. One thing she said just stuck with me. She said "he was a good boy". She remembered you as a "good boy" ... I remember you as a "good man" because you treated everyone around you with utmost respect. From your crewchief and friend, Wayne Pilon 1916 16th Street South, Moorhead, Mn 56560 waynepilon@email.com

 

16 Feb 2006 Outside Looking In By Rena Shereck I've gone through life Broken and abused Torn in two between what is right, and what is wrong I have always been on the outside looking in In my life, my tears have fallen Shattered on the ground like an iced over heart. Rejected by others who I've known so long Only so I can be on the outside looking in. Through my life, I have seen people within Their hearts are cold They like to see people in pain, so they can laugh Have they ever been on the outside looking in? Always looking in, from the rain and the cold Always looking at the fun they have Always caring when someone falls, even if it hurts me I am always on the outside looking in. They are warm when outside I am cold Soaking wet from the pouring rain Do they even see me? When I am outside looking in Do they see the pain I go through? Do they see what they have done? Are they, like the bat, blind as night? Do they see me looking in? I am on the outside looking in I have been on the outside looking in? Unless change in this world happens Many will be on the outside looking in. I did not know you because I wasn't born at the time. But this poem made me think of all those who serve in our history. My name is Rena Shereck, I am the daughter of Tim Shereck and Grandaughter to Wilmer Shereck. I hope this will stand for something to everyone sometime. I am thankful for your cause and wish you could be here with us. I do not know much about my family because I live with my mom and not my dad (which is the Shereck side of me) but I want everyone who is related to Captain Shereck to know that you are in my prayers always. From a cousin (I think), Rena rashizu_silent_alchemist@hotmail.com

 

Captain James J Shereck is remembered by his comrades from the 191st Assault Helicopter Company and the 131st Aviation Company
