About

He ain't heavy he's my brother

The road is long
With many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where
Who knows where
But I'm strong
Strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy, he's my brother

So on we go
His welfare is of my concern
No burden is he to bare
We'll get there

For I know
He would not encumber me
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
If I'm laden at all
I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart
Isn't filled with the gladness
Of love for one another
It's a long, long road
From which there is no return
While we're on the way to there
Why not share
And the load
Doesn't weigh me down at all
He ain't heavy he's my brother
He's my brother
He ain't heavy, he's my brother

My Memories

Derek W. Harrison (Aug 21, 2008)

I was John's first SNCOIC in the fleet. He was an outstanding Marine. One day after he first reported to my office, I asked him what he should do if there was a fire. He looked at me with all seriousness and said "I'm gonna jump out the window". We must have laughed about that for a year. As John became a more seasoned Marine, I saw the greatness in him and decided to send him to jump school. School seats for administrators were hard to come by. I only got two in my 20 year career. One of those seats when to John. He is truly missed and I was blessed to know him. God Bless you John Bovain. Semper Fi.
