Walter,

In your list of servicemen and women that died, Raymond J Plouhar was from Lake Orion, Michigan. I didn't know him personally, but so many of his family is tied up in the school's transportaion department in some way or another, so I know a lot of them. It's a shame, he only had 38 more days in service.

But thank you for the beautiful picture. :)

I'm very late on this, but I thought someone might be able to tell me if the Barbara Cloutier listed here was Ed's wife. Ed was my mom's cousin.
Thanks,
Lisa

Yes, Lisa, the Barbara Cloutier listed above was Ed's wife. I tried to find her obituary in the local paper for you, but unfortunately they don't archive them back that far. Mary Drew at Pasty Central

Thanks, Mary.

P. S. I contacted the Daily Mining Gazette and they mailed me a
copy. Thanks again!!
