It was with sorrow that I saw the following obituary for our Forum Member, WWII Veteran Mr. Wheeler, at Semper Fi

There may be some members who did not see it yet and I thought they might wish to know.

I was enjoying talking with him and wondered why he disappeared. Now I know.

I had bought and read his book, Iwo, last summer. It was good, I recommend it to all.

A life lived fully should be celebrated but I still feel saddened to read of his passing. May he, and all who have gone before, rest in peace.
