Tony and Carl – like peanut butter and jelly

Oh man, this was the first thing I saw on my FB page this morning. A pic from one of the WWII reunions, with my two best buds, Tony and Carl. I immediately burst into tears. I can’t even begin to explain how much I miss these two hams. Carl passed in 2017. He never made it to the last reunion we had that fall, but we did get to skype with him. Tony died at the ripe old age of 102 in July of 2018. These two were inseparable since their foxhole days with the 36th Engineers.

I love and miss you guys. And I miss getting Carl’s homemade Hallmark cards for each and every holiday. He called me his daughter and I called him dad. So many wonderful memories.
