[Pugman1943]

No tears but a toast requested. This is my father in law.

Leonard M. Kelly, SSgt US Army ( ret. )
Fighting 69th Combat Engineers
Africa, Ardennes, Germany
Two Bronze Stars


Maintenance & Electrical Shop Manager Oxy Chemical ( 44 ) years.

Passed peacefully today at 1341 hours with family in attendance. He was 95, But in worse than rotten shape. Today was a blessing.

The only thing I ask is a small toast in his honor, as he sure did enjoy a Manhattan.

Thanks, Ed

Oddly enough, I was thinking about having a Manhattan or two today, I'm going to be taking the day off tomorrow as well as the weekend. I will toast in his honor.
