Oscar,
Neighbor and high school classmate, we will miss you! I remember how you used to walk to Reynes Grocery after school, and played ball in Richard Lee Park. Oscar, the Drill Team, track team and your activities of strength prepared you for your military career. Marianna, Geneva, and the family, let love be your strength. Our hearts are with you all. We salute you for your service.
