Subject: Fred Harmon's health.

 Hey Ben/Bob,

I talked to Fred Harmon's Nephews wife today & learned that Fred is in the hospital in Columbia, & is having a great deal of trouble with his eyes, which has led to the infection of his leg. They are not sure when Fred will be able to come home, so I thought all of Fred's friends would like to wish him well, & remember him in their prayers. His address is: 8121 Monticello Rd. Columbia, S.C. 29203. I am sure he would appreciate anyone remembering him. I am looking forward to June in Washington. Best 517 regards, Morris McDowell

Hello Ben
Good to hear from you !! Thank You !! For asking about my Dad, he is doing
well, he is out of the hospital and he is back home. Doctor says he did not
have a stroke or a seizure, apparently it was his
blood sugar.  We are looking forward to seeing you at Washington D.C.
reunion....Wade and my sister and myself will be there.
Take Care
Barbara

Hi Mr. Barrett, my name is Kathy McWilliams. I am Louis D. Holzworth's
(Sarge) grand-daughter. I know Sarge was extremely active in keeping up
with his wartime buddies. I wanted to let you know that Sarge passed
away on January 12, 2007 at 8:15 AM in his home in Spring Hill, FL.
Please get the word out to anyone that knew Sarge, I would greatly
appreciate it. I live in Virginia and regretfully he really did not
have a funeral or memorial service. If anyone from your organization
would like more information, they can contact me at kathymcw@yahoo.com.


Thank you.
