He always proudly sported his “KOREAN VETERAN” cap.

He never met a stranger and loved to tell stories and extol the virtues of the Charles George VA where he received excellent care while he lived in WNC. The family would like to thank the entire VA staff, from Doctors to Volunteers for the wonderful care given to him. Services will be held at 2:00 PM on Thursday, January 17, 2019 in the chapel of the Western Carolina State Veteran’s Cemetery in Black Mountain, NC.
