A set of parents, I think it was the Youngs, said his sister died while he's been in captivity. He was aware she was terminally ill. But imagine the parents have a child go POW and then another die in such a short time.

Back in 1968', I had a friend named Patty in first year highschool. She was killed brutually by a train. Her brother lost a leg in 'Nam, her Dad died, all within six months, her Mom from all that spiritual pain died within a year.
