I didn't know Mr. Cafferata but felt I did as his photo hung in Debbie's and my apt in Rancho Cordova CA in the early 1980s. I lost track of Debbie when she moved. I tried finding her many times online, and, remembering her father's name, I searched for him again tonight and found his obituary. I was so sorry to learn of his death, but I'm also grateful if this reconnects me with Debbie. She could contact me at [email protected]. God bless your family.

My condolences to your family. I did not know Mr. Cafferata but I learned about him from my father and attended his day on Sept 12, 1992 in Montville. He was a humble man by all accounts as are most true heroes. I am trying to arrange for all flags to be lowered in his honor in NJ as a small token of my appreciation. God Bless.
Sincerely
