America bids farewell to another of its heroes; Heaven gains another guardian. I hope Don passed his stories along. He and his generation are the finest and bravest this country ever produced.
Here's hoping my father (USS Los Angeles before he went USAF) snagged him at the Pearly Gates for a cold one.
You and I may linger here for years, but for them it will just be an eye's blink before we're all reunited again.
God love these old proud men - we are so blessed to have known them.
May your family find comfort in his legacy of love and goodness...
A heartfelt thank you to Don Miller Stroud.
God Bless him.
We're losing so many great men, these WWII vets. My grampa was one of them. A D-Day vet. We lost him on Oct 22nd.
Please accept our family's heartfelt condolence. He'll meet my Dad, who passed away four days before him, in heaven. God bless them all for all they gave.
