A fitting honor on the 4th Login/Join

My grandpa's brother, Blaine, fought in WWII and was listed as missing in action in Italy in 1944. One of the people in the little community in Northern Utah where Blaine was from decided to honor him by purchasing a cemetery plot and erecting a memorial in his honor. He felt bad that Blaine never have a funeral. All of Blaine's siblings have passed, but several nieces and nephews are still living, and they are gathering today at the cemetery to dedicate the memorial. I thought that was a very nice thing to do.



Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice - pull down your pants and slide on the ice.

Riverside, just north of Tremonton. I seem to recall you're from Northern Utah as well, right?
