Excuse me, this isn`t a hoax.
This is nothing to make fun of.

I am so happy that there are people who want to help me.

Hyun-Soo,

Thank you for your concern. But the story is true. Once Andy and I complete all the answers I will be glad to post them with all honors.

Until then,

Lisa

I am so thrilled to see that you two have connected. I know your grandfather MADE this happen...nothing this important happens by chance. I can't help but feel that my brother and your grandfather have met up...I was blessed after he was killed in the line of duty to go to see John Edwards from Crossing Over when he came here to San Antonio. I just KNEW my brother was going to come thru, and he was the FIRST READING of more than 2,000 folks in attendance at the Convention Center!!! During the readings that followed, John kept mentioning that Mark was pushing folks forwarded that wanted to connect but were holding back. That is the way my brother was, always trying to help others, and since I was able to find you I am certain that both your Grandfather and Mark had a hand in it!!! I know there are those that choose not to believe, but once you have experienced it you know better!!! Our loved ones never totally leave us. Can't explain it, but once you are touched you just know it is true!!!

Andy.....I would be happy to help you with the other names if you don't have much luck. I do a lot of genealogy research and I do not have to live in the city or area where they are from to research. PM me if you need assistance.
You are doing a wonderful thing.

BTW - Lisa Ontiveroz....do you know there is an "honorary" marker at Ft. Sam Houston National Cemetery for your grandfather? Your grandmother was buried ther in 1989.....I'm sure info you already have. Was your grandmother also in WWII? The records I found indicated she was also a CPL.
My father is also buried at Ft. Sam.
