I thought so....May the LORD Bless you and your Family, and may you Feel His Presence to comfort you.

I am so sorry for your loss.

I was with him when he went Home. I didn't take his wedding ring until then...my Mom wears it now. They "talk" all the time, and my Mom is doing well. They would have been married 70 years in August. And add their high school years....long time.

I left Camp Claiborne, Louisiana on about the 27th of August 1943, by train, on a 14 day Furlough without travel time to get married. (He wasn't yet 21 so his Mom had to sign for him.) After a great Wedding, a Wonderful, but short honeymoon at Big Bear Lake, California, I left her living with her folks in Long Beach, California and returned to Camp Claiborne until approximately the 26th or 27th of December 1943. About 300 of us were shipped, via train, to Camp Shenango, PA, an Overseas Replacement Center.
