What they remember about Peter W. Schmidt, Fernando S. Tamayo and Cesar O. Baez
Here's a sampling of the remembrances posted by friends and family of California's fallen soldiers:
"Peter was the standout kid in a Sunday School class I taught. We would sometimes have Wednesday night Bible study class, and after study Peter would pull out the red, white and blue chips and a deck of cards and teach us how to play poker. For me, that's a perfect memory."

"There isn't a day that goes by since your passing that we do not think of you. Tears? I don't [think] we have any left in us. Our family has struggled since your loss, but we take solace in the memories that are [embedded] in us. Mom and Dad miss you so much as do I. You are always and forever will be in our hearts. Descansa en Paz, hermanito."

"There is not a day that goes by that I do not think of him.
He was a great corpsman that was dedicated to his job and family.
Rest in Peace my friend."
