Kathy's Trip to WWII Sites

After the friendship dinner last evening, Kathy gave an illustrated presentation on her trip to her father's grave in the Philippines.

Kathy's father was injured in the horrible combat in the Pacific and died on the day Kathy was born. Her father had been somewhat of a mystery to her until a few years ago when husband Bob helped her locate her dad's family here in Texas.

From that, her information and ties to her father's side of the family grew. And finally, a dream came true: she was able to visit the grave of her father last Memorial Day in the national cemetery in the Philippines.

Kathy had some great photographs to illustrate her trip, printed by Bob.

This is just one more example of great people with interesting experiences to share here at Rockport 35 RV Park.
