I would like to give Heather’s brother, Jason, a huge “Thank You.”
When we were in Hawaii for Jon and Darby’s wedding, Mom, Dad and I went to the U.S. Memorial for those who lost their lives in Pacific wars. We wanted to find the name of Grandma’s brother, Wallace Sam Sorensen, who was lost at sea during WWII. But we found out his name was not at the memorial in Hawaii, but at a similar memorial in the Philippines.

(Click for a closer view)In comes Jason…Jason is an engineer (like his father and my father, interestingly) and a production manager for the company he works for. Recently his company decided to open a factory in the Philippines and sent Jason to help open that factory. While there, Jason went to the U.S. Memorial in Manila and got a few photos and, because of the mystery surrounding Sammy’s loss, did some research and found some info that our family had not known. And in doing so, answered some questions that had gone unanswered for more than 65 years.
Sooo, from all of our family, thank you Jason, thank you.
