With Memorial Day approaching, it would be fitting to honor OUR friend's memory and sacrifice by placing the symbolic American flag next to his name everywhere it appears.
Thank you my dear friend for your sacrifice,
I think of you constantly and still observe Memorial Day on May 31s as I never need a three day weekend to honor our fallen heroes.
God bless you Danny and so many others for everything, you are my true heroes.
I thought it would be appropriate to honor our classmate Dan Flowers memory by posting this as to his service and his passing. He was a friend and died in the service of our country.

Montgomery County lists about a dozen Blair graduates who were killed in Nam.
However, the site leaves Dan Flowers off the list because I believe he was born in NY and he must have listed his home of records as NY.
Someone who lives in the area please correct this oversight... He was my friend and I cherish his memory.
