No. 01-17 11 Apr 17 NEWS LETTER UPDATE: My humble apologies to all my fellow classmates for I have been behind in publishing our class newsletter. Seems likes many things have gotten in the way since our last class reunion, including at least two deaths and some serious illnesses. Ailing Classmates: Several of our fellow classmates and/or their spouse are battling various illnesses and were not able to attend the 52nd reunion. Our numbers continue to dwindle as we have lost 10 classmates since our 50th reunion at Fort Benning in April 2014. Both Roy Stewart and Dick Chandler have answered the last roll call in 2016. However, there is some good news as George Wilkins has recovered from his most recent bout in the hospital and is now back home! Please keep them all in your prayers! Please keep me posted as to any/all changes/events that may occur so that I might share with our entire class. It would be helpful if some friend or family member would retain my email address/phone number and keep me posted in order that I might inform our fellow classmates and update our website.

Rest in Peace faithful classmates and comrades. A Formal Military Honor Ceremony Planned for Dick Chandler. Dick was cremated after his passing last year. The family and his military associates in Idaho want to conduct an honor ceremony in his behalf however, due to the extreme winters in that area, the decision was made to postpone the event until 20 May 2017. Attached is the obituary followed by details of the planned ceremony. A listing of local accommodations and travel suggestions are also included for those classmates planning to attend.
The Military Service is scheduled for 1000 hours, 20 May 2017, on the corner of Capital Avenue and Spruce Street, in Mackay Idaho. The American Legion is providing a dinner following the ceremony. Air Travel: Best travel route is to fly to Salt Lake City, UT, rent a car and drive to Mackay, Idaho (not a very large town). Below are local accommodations: The ceremony is on Saturday therefore travel is recommended to arrive on Friday and Depart on Sunday/Monday. Rodney Chandler (Dick’s son) indicates these hotels do become full quite early in the season..
