Grace,
With deepest condolences on Uncle JD's passing. He will be truly missed. He has made his imprint on the youth of Omaha, the Americans in this world, and our family. My memories spent with JD will live on forever with me and I will pass them onto my family. My fondest memory is when Uncle JD and I went to a Husker football game Nov 89.
We love you and we have you in our prayers. The good Lord has another Damn GOOD Marine at Heaven's gate.
Love, Dale and family
