That Girl: Your memory of Ernie his reward
Saturday, April 28, 1945
The following statement to Ernie Pyle’s readers is published at the request of Mrs. Pyle:
To all of you who have tried to find words to express the grief in your hearts for the deeply personal loss you feel because Ernie has gone from us, I want to say I am one of you. Our loss is a common loss. Your letters and messages made me feel you had come to me for comfort – the comfort that Ernie had given you each day.
That he will live in your hearts forever will be his reward – his monument.
MRS. JERRY PYLE
