A front page story in today's wsj.com describes one man's efforts to honor those who served our country and left this world without any memorial services. A former Marine who is also a mortician in Seattle, WA decided that he would step up and assist these forgotten servicemen and women who were passed over when it came time for a proper burial.
He has spent time and money to give these remains the dignified burial they deserve. The Mount Tahoma National Cemetery near Seattle is the final resting place for these servicemen. The former Marine makes a point to give each set of remains proper identity and specified location in the Mt. Tahoma location.
A Marine who remembers: well done.
