“Goose” was a good friend since 1949; a person of strong will; and I will never forget him.
My condolences to his children, grandchildren, and brothers.
Goose, I am so happy, that I was able to meet you and become one of your best friends.
We got to do a lot of great things together, and Sis and I would bring you up to our house, to stay a few days with us.
I got to get you copies of your CCC records; from when you were younger. Got to go up on Skyline Drive, and enjoy the animals, and some of the rock walls, you helped build, in your earlier years.
We got to be with you with your Oyster Feast, and chow down on a lot of Oysters….
Michael and I, got to take you up to Reading, PA., to the World War II Reinactment, along with Bill Dorr and his Dad.
We had some great times when I would take you to dinner, on a Veterans Day. You were a great hit, for the veterans, that you got to meet, and enjoying all the pretty girls, hugs and kisses from them.
The most memorable memory, with you, was taking you on Your First Honor Flight. We got to travel to the D.C. area, and enjoy all the major Memorials there.
You, and all the other Veterans, were shown the respect, that you all deserved, for the service you gave our Great Country.
I’m sorry, we didn’t get to go down to your Home Town, where we were going to visit, and show me all your favorite places.
You are going to be greatly missed, by your family, and Sis and I.
You can count on me, looking you up, when we get to Heaven……
Love and Miss You…….
Danny and Sis
