Mrs. D & Troop 8;
Mr. D will be so missed. The short "Celebration of Life" we had at Rodondo Beach was a great tribute to a wonderful friend. Jack and I felt very privileged to have had that time with you, Joseph and Tommy. It was great recalling all the good times we had with you two and your terrific "Troop 8." We thank you for sharing that moment. We will never forget Ping. He was the best....which was why we picked him to be the Best Man at our wedding!!
Our love and prayers to you and the rest of your growing family.
Love always,

Vince & Family,
Our prayers and thoughts are with you on the passing of your brother Ping. He was a great man and friend. I remember him well as a Senator and candidate for Lt. Governor. May his memory bring you comfort, especially the wonderful things he championed for the people of Guam. As a Vietnam Vet, he was always there for me. Ping and his brother-in-law Senator Tony Unpingco were staunch supporters of the Combat Patrol & Veterans Bonuses and other issues related to our folks in Uniform. Si Yu'os Ma'åse'.
