It's a shame, because he was a great student, well on his way to being a great analyst. Funeral is this Thursday.

Mark,
His body has already been flown to somewhere in California, which is where the funeral will take place. He will be cremated and his mother, a retired AF officer, will then take him with her back to Dayton, OH. The mother wanted this taken care of as quickly as possible.
We found out today that there is a possibilty that he was either texting or reading a text, while driving, and quite possibly swerved into the tractor trailer's fuel tank.

Veterans Cemetary in Randolph, VT August of 09.
Visiting my Grandmother's Grave
I had to show her the new (To us) Airstream.
The 1966 Tradewind that I got from her is out of commission because of a tree falling on it this past winter.

Today being Veterans Day, I called my dad to thank him for his 33yrs. of service, I did get choked up.
He was a Naval Aviator for many years, putting his live on the line for this country, just as thousands of breave men and women have done.
From the bottom of my heart, I say Thank You!!. Thank you seems so small for something so important and so large.
I will continue to pray and support all branches of the
Military of the United States of America
