Hi,
I saw your dad's obituary and wanted to send my condolences. I also wondered if he might be related to anyone in our family...my dad and mom had the last name of Legg. He was Jack Legg and was born in West Virginia. He also served in the army and would have been a little older than your dad...his parents were Walter and Gracie Legg. I was just curious. We haven't run into very many people with that last name. God bless and keep you. Terry McNabb ( I included my email)
