R.I.P Uncle. I continue our Overton service in the Army til this day for you. Now I am the oldest Overton from our family in the Army, in your remembrance. I'm still smoking cigars and sippin my whiskey while petting my cat. No credit card debt... Rest in heaven.

I just ran across this gentleman's story. I fell in love with him instantly. I'm happy he didn't have to see what is going on in our world today, the world he fought for the freedom of and sacrificed his own life for. What a beloved and respected man.
