After fighter pilot John L. Harrison, Jr. and his "Band of Brothers," the Tuskegee Airmen, helped to defeat the evil of Nazism in Europe. They then came home to America to work to combat racism in America. "From every mountainside, Let Freedom Ring!"

We must ALWAYS REMEMBER...Our Veterans, and what they endured for our sake...And we must NEVER FORGET...The Freedom that is ours because of their Blood, Sweat, and Tears.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. May you feel the comfort and peace that comes from our caring God at this time of sorrow.

May the words of John 11:11, 21-25, 40-44 be a source of encouragement and comfort to the Harrison family for your loss. My heartfelt sympathy to the family.
