I'm watching your video you did about WWII. God Bless you! My grandfather was also in the 28th Infantry 112th Infantry Regiment. We will never have men like the men that served during this time! Thank you for your service and rest in peace.

I never met this gentleman, but wish I would have. I have lost count of how many times I have watched his story of the hurtgen Forrest on you tube. I admire all persons of his generation. I can tell that he had a great personality, funny, but also very compassionate to his fellow man. [email protected]. Just in case anyone wants to contact me for this comment

Uncle Sparky was very much loved by many, many folks and will be missed. He lived a full life filled with many adventures and enjoyed all with whom he came in contact. He has taken his last journey and now rests with his wife, parents and siblings in the arms of Jesus. My condolences to those he leaves behind.
Condolences from Capt. Ed McGuinn & Sgt. Chuck Faust, 327th GIR

RIP Alexander"Sparky" Kisse- 28th Inf Division Hurtgen Forest & Battle of the Bulge veteran.
It is with a sad heart to learn of the passing of Sparky. I will always cherish the time that we spent listening to the stories and antics of his WWII adventure and experiences! I loved and respected him as if he were my own grandfather - and in a way he was! He will always be an honorary member of our 327th Glider Infantry Regiment!
I will also cherish the honor of escorting him to the WWII Memorial in Washington, D.C. along with my other 327th GIR reenactor colleagues!
