Re: Local Jeep-loving marine dies in afghanistan
I did not know him personally, but i remember seeing his jeep around town when he was home on leave. I also drove by his house for work and they have several XJs and a huge wooden American flag in the yard. Traffic in Ludlow was at a standstill all over town today for the funeral. Ludlow public schools were given the day off and alot of businesses closed down so employees could attend the memorial. I passed through on my way home from work and it really took my breath away to see how the whole town seemingly showed up to pay their respects. |
