May all of you have a wonderful holiday weekend and enjoy this time with your families remembering the reason for this holiday.
-Tammi
I want to acknowledge the memories of our sailors, our soldiers and all others in service to our country and military over the past 3 centuries. Individually my family: my Dad Charles and his service in the Air Force in the Korean War, Uncle Glen for his time in the Army in Viet Nam, my Uncle John who served in the Navy in WW2, my cousin Patrick who was career Air Force and is now retired, my father-in-law Charlie and his service in the Army during the Korean War, my great-aunt Stella, a WAC serving in WW2, and of course my great-uncle Billy who is the focus of this web site and project. My husband and I will be attending the services at the Lexington Cemetery here tomorrow, something I have come to truly enjoy. I've met some amazing people with their own stories to share.
May all of you have a wonderful holiday weekend and enjoy this time with your families remembering the reason for this holiday. -Tammi If this JPEG is too difficult to read, message me through the Contacts form on the Strong Contacts page and I will send you a PDF via email. Thanks!!!

Tammi JohnsonWelcome to the blog! I'm a life long Kentuckian with a degree in Anthropology, thus a nice background in research, thanks to some great profs at the University of Kentucky. Family and historical research are what float my boat, and this project has been the heart of it for a very long time now. I welcome input and ideas for blog entries, so if you have something to contribute I'll happily post it. Archives
