MSG Merle, Ron 7th SFG 83'-99'
In an effort to notify anybody else out there that may have known my father.
Unfortunately I only keep up with a few of his old team guys, and I figured this was my best bet to get the word out beyond my contacts.
...Until we meet again dad...

¡Vaya con Dios hermann!
Prayers go out to his family, may you find peace in his courage.

Middlecreek,
I remember your Dad, he was a senior guy compared to me at the time. I did not know him well obviously (he would have no idea who I was) but remember him on a jump because he looked like a squared away dude, you know, what you expect a Green Beret to look like and act like...competent.
I'm very sorry for your loss.

To echo Hacksaw, your Dad was the epitome of what a Green Beret should be. He evaluated my team back in the '80s and his standards were high. My prayers are with you and your family.
