02 Jun 2007 He was a doctor's son ... he could have taken the easy way out but instead chose to serve our country with honor and dignity. He was my wrestling partner in high school, I never could beat him! A quiet guy, an accomplished writer in his own way. Now, forever young, buried in his hometown, Jamestown N.D. May God give you eternal peace and rest. An old friend Mike mikensue3@msn.com
