PFC John Thomas Trivette. It is with love and a real sense of pride that I write this to honor my deceased brother. He was a wonderful brother – who sometimes aggravated me, his older sister to tears. Tom was only 23 when he was deployed to Vietnam to fight in that unpopular war. He only lived five weeks after this assignment and died in May, 1967. Thank you, Tom, for giving the ultimate sacrifice so that the rest of us can enjoy our freedoms in America today. From his sister, Nancy Trivette Martin
Tommy Trivette was a gentle person with a warm and friendly smile. We grew up together and attended high school and church in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. He was a very giving person who would do anything he could for his friends. I am sure he was doing just that when he gave his life for his country. Tommy, I took a picture of your name on the wall and gave it to your father. He and your mother were very proud of you, as we all are. We miss you but know that you are in a better place, resting in God's arms. Rest in peace my friend. Dominus vobiscum, Bill Christy.
