Hello DD. I remember when I was about 7 years old you came and spent the night with us in Wichita, KS. That was in 1949 I believe. You stayed in the upstairs bedroom at our house on Main street. I remember talking with you and it was great. Then you joined the Marines and came home to see everyone and we all got together for that. Next thing I remember was grandma received a telegram saying you gave your life for your country. There is no greater honor than this. Thank you for your service DD. My mom Marilee talked about you very much. She is also gone now. You were and still are greatly loved and missed in life. It was a privilege to meet you. We will all be together again.
