Conor MacNessa - Final Goodbye

Posted on 01/28/2024 6:59:51 PM PST by AbnSarge

Conor MacNessa (Tom Mitchell) will be laid to his final rest at Arlington National Cemetery April 10. Unfortunately it takes that long to be scheduled with full appropriate honors.

I will be there, and invite any Freepers in the DC/VA/MD area who may have known and respected Tom to participate.

PM me for more details.

God love Tom, God Bless and comfort his family, and God Bless you all.

'Til Valhallah, Brother

A life well lived.

~~~~~~

Indeed.

Bless you, AbnSarge, for posting this notice, and, all of the wonderful words/dedications, to Conor/Tom.

What an honor to have known him, and, to be able to attend this very special service.

Bless his soul, for eternity, and, bless and comfort his family, and, all who loved Tom, in their loss.

Yes, thank you.I did notice this event a little while ago, and though of making one of my acquaintances, another Corpsman living in upper MD, but I didn't know if it would be appropriate in this case. I did read of the whole summary of his life and of his service, a really fine fellow lover of Liberty for all.

Thank you again for re-notifying of the burial at Arlington. I wish I was able to go.

Actually and coincidentally, I just finished watchinf Mel Gibson's DVD "Hacksaw Ridge," a portrayal of the WWII Army medic Desmond Doss, who ennobled that service as a CO of being armed, but was awarded the Medal of Honor for his marvelous bravery and commitment to his MOS in bloody combat on Okinawa.
