Please pray for our Army heros and their families . . .
Some of these Army warriors are relatives/namesakes, eg. Hall, Munro, Poorman,
Ryan, Wertz, friends, people from my hometown area, or just those I ran across who deserve recognition and our prayers
. . .

I got a nice email from Johnny's niece Wanda, pointing out that John was a Corporal
in the U. S. Army, not the USAF as indicated in the obituary. Thanks Wanda.
My Dad liked Johnny, and the Crissman's, and when I was a kid, Dad took me along with
him to Crissman's packing plant in Castanea where we saw John a lot, just about every week. John used to show me around
the plant. He would give me a hot dog to eat while we were walking through the plant. John always treated
me kindly.
