1945: WII TRENTON AREA GI'S MEET IN CHINA AND HAWAII

If you have been a regular visitor to this site you know of the undying love and respect I have for those members of "The Greatest Generation," most of whom are in their mid to late 80's, and passing on at an alarming rate. The above graphic is from the "World War II" folder in the Hamilton Library's digital data base.

Hi Tom: The photo of the guys above were friends of mine from way back. Willie Fynn was a star player at Trenton High in the 30s and latter worked with me in the post office. I've known Vic Anselmi since we were kids in Villa Park and Gervasoni was a Burg resident for years. We were in the service about the same time and I'm the lucky one who is still around. May God Bless Them and may they rest in peace. Regards, Ralph

HI RALPH:

EMAILS LIKE YOURS IS WHAT MAKES ALL THE HARD WORK WORTHWHILE. I ALWAYS LOVE IT WHEN I POST FREINDS AND RELATIVES OF MY VISITORS, OR STRIKE A BITTERSWEET MEMORY OF OUR YOUTH WITH PHOTOS OR ARTICLES THAT TOUCH THE DEEPEST PARTS OF OUR SOUL. THANKS FOR YOUR LOYAL ACCESS TO MY BLOG.
