Title: Lost a Family Member
Post by: Masherbrum on October 08, 2010, 11:27:52 PM

I have a cousin who passed away at Age 60.   Today was his funeral.  Unbeknown-st to many family members, he did a Tour "In Country" from 1968-1970 in the 101st Airborne (5th Div. is what people think) near the DMZ (Camp Carroll or the Rock Pile?).   He was buried today with his Bronze Star on his chest.   He never spoke of his actions to most.   Only vague things were siphoned down through the years.   He was buried with Full Military Honors.   It was water works for me to watch this happen, to one of the nicest people that I have ever met.   I've never seen it in person and it truly is overwhelming to witness.   

He would take in friends in need just to provide a roof over their heads and ask for zilch in return.   He watched over the neighbors kids and treated all people with the friendliness of a family member.   Agent Orange attacked his body and because of it, he was 100% disabled not long after discharge, but he never let anything get him down.   He is no longer in pain and no doubt helping watch over the flock in Heaven.   

RIP Michael Moll.   :salute


Just thought I'd share this with some friends.

Thank you for sharing, now more people know him than before.  That is never a bad thing.  Would that we could all leave this place with someone wanting to share a small part of ourselves with others.
