    Esel1964 has passed away

    Esel1964, a member of these forums for years, has passed away on Friday.
    My friend, Mike Owens, had been in poor health for quite some time but thought he would pull through.
    His wife notified me that day and is having a very difficult time.
    You may leave condolences for his family if you would like...

    What his obituary doesn't mention is who his great uncle was.
    His great uncle was Beryl R. Newman, a Medal of Honor recipient from WW2.
    Please take the time to read his citation.

    and see his burial site...

    That was a lot to live up to growing up.
    Often times Mike would tell me of the great memories he had of Uncle Beryl and the stories he would share.
    Mike, you were a friend of mine and you will be missed.
