Sorry to hear of your loss. Your Dad WAS a true hero. My thought , prayers and thanks.

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.

Link, I'm very sorry for your loss
I'm sure you are proud of your dad and you should be, he was from the greatest generation!.
93 years is quite an accomplishment too.
Cherish his memories. I'm sure he will be honored well at the services.

Thank God for the stories, ML. You'll never forget them as that
is how the men of that generation communicated about
their past and family history.

They will always be with you and the memories and
laughs will last forever.
