Mr. Murray,
Sir, I didn't know you, but I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served with the U.S. Army in Korea. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

I am very sorry for your loss and for my loss. Jack and I were friends from our days at B.C. High and Boston College. We also went through Army training at Ft. Bragg and then at Ft. Sill. In retirement on The Cape, we enjoyed many lunches, reliving old times when we both were lads. I will miss him very much. Jim Moroney
