Hello,
We would like to express our deepest condolences and also let the Gurtner Family know that we recently sent Care Packages to American troops in the war zones. Each box carried a dedication sheet that includes the name, service information and a photo of your loved one. We recognize that this is a humble tribute, but we wanted you to know that it is heartfelt and made possible by thousands of like-minded individuals in the youth hockey community and beyond. We will not forget. ...

I remember and still think about my Marine buddies who lost their lives as we swept across the Pacific islands during WW2. I lost a very close Fort Wayne buddy who lost his life on Peleliu. I lost another Fort Wayne Marine friend during the Korean war whose body was never found. I consider myself one of the fortunates who survived and made it home to be with family again. My heart goes out to the surviving family members of this good Marine young man. Semper Fidelis.
