I think about you often and all the good times we shared together. You weren't just a "family" friend. You were like an Uncle to me. I will never forget you Milan. They named a part of Highway 29 after you in 2019. I know you would be proud. Rest Easy Milan. Thank You for your service and your sacrifice.
