Thank you all for your condolences. I think of freerepublic as my home on the Internet.

That is a thought. I may look into it. I have also considered a marker in the cemetery, that is all that remains of that little village church that I attended 60 years ago. Several of my near relatives are buried there; my twin sister, and both of my grand mothers, one grandfather, and my step-grandfather. It would be a fitting place. The nearest human habitation is a quarter mile away, and it is surrounded on three sides by trees.

I added the banglist because I have so many friends and colleagues on the list.

Thank you...and God Bless you.

Much as I attempted to get things right, I was off by a year on Pearl Harbor. Pearl was attacked on December 7th, 1941, not 1940. Therefore their first daughter was born before the war started.

Thanks to mcmuffin for prompting me to correct the error.
