The Final Salute
“Brothers in Arms”, Military men and women down through the centuries, have traditionally exchanged “Hand Salutes” as a sign of recognition and as a way to render courtesy and respect one to another.
This “Hand Salute” is the last that we shall render to George Lee “Babe” Kendrick our “Brother-in-Arms”. To his family it symbolizes the love and respect that we have for “Babe”. And to “Babe” it is rendered as a symbol of honor and gratitude to thank him for the devoted and selfless service he rendered to his country during WW-II while serving in the U.S. Armed Forces. We also acknowledge and greatly appreciate the many years of service he devoted to the American Legion Baseball Program. “Babe”, we bid you a sad farewell. You will be dearly missed from among our ranks. Be at Ease. Rest in Peace.
On behalf of the 1,341 members of Lowe-McFarlane Post 14 of the American Legion, I extend our sympathies and our condolences to “Babe”’s family and loved ones.
