Even though this happened 43 years ago, it still aches as if it were today.
Thank you for your service. Sooo sad for everyone that knew you, especially
your young family. I hope you are resting with our Savior.

TrooperPowell, You were too young to die. Too young to leave your young wife and child. 40 years. You would be 68 now. I hope your Son grew up to know that his father IS a TRUE hero. God Bless.
