He’s a cancer survivor, had multiple major heart surgeries and when millions of people died from Covid.. he survived… I don’t think there is anything he hasn’t done. I think that’s what makes his life so successful. He’s seen joy, he’s seen sadness…he’s seen life. Popi you are missed more than words can say. We are so proud to be your family and grateful to have had you in our lives. Your daughters, grandchildren and great grandchildren will hold you in their hearts forever. We love you!</div><a class='btn btn-primary btn-sm mt-2 remember-wall-toggle-long-description' onclick='initRememberWallToggleLongDescriptionBtn(this)'>Learn more</a> Angelo LaTerra, Army
<i class="material-icons" data-template="memories-icon">chat_bubble</i><br/>John A Brinson JR, Navy, SN<br/>Born 6/10/1942<br/>Passed on 11/11/2017<br/>Posted by: Sterling Brinson<br/><div class='remember-wall-long-description'>Thank you for everything you gave to our family. You were my first example of what it means to show up, to work hard, and to love without giving up. As your son, I still feel you beside me every day, even though you’re no longer here.You carried our family on your shoulders in ways I only fully understand now that I’m grown. You taught me that where there is a will, there is a way, and you proved it in the quiet, everyday sacrifices you made for us. When things were hard, you didn’t walk away—you dug in deeper, and that strength is the voice I still hear when I feel like quitting.I hope you know how much you are still talked about, still missed, and still loved. Your grandchildren and great-grandchildren know your stories, your sayings, your humor, and your stubborn determination, because we keep sharing them. You are still the standard I measure myself against as a man, a parent, and a member of this family.Thank you for being my role model, my example, and my guide, even from beyond this life. I carry your name, your lessons, and your love with me in everything I do. Your spirit lives on in me, and I will spend the rest of my life trying to make you proud.With love always, Your son Sterling</div><a class='btn btn-primary btn-sm mt-2 remember-wall-toggle-long-description' onclick='initRememberWallToggleLongDescriptionBtn(this)'>Learn more</a> John A Brinson JR, Navy

Jannace, Army, SFC<br/>Born 12/12/1919<br/>Passed on 10/4/1983<br/>Posted by: William Jannace<br/><div class='remember-wall-long-description'>My father, Anthony E. Jannace, enlisted in the U.S. Army after Pearl Harbor was bombed and served in the Second Engineer Combat Battalion of the Second Infantry Division, in the European Theater of Operations during WWII. He participated in five campaigns: The Battle of Normandy, Northern France (Brest), Ardennes-Alsace, the Rhineland, and Central Europe. The battalion he served in received a Presidential Unit Citation (one of 16 the division received) for its heroism during the Battle of the Bulge. During one week in the battle approximately 25% of the battalion suffered casualties while being caught behind the German pincer movements in the Ardennes. He was wounded twice: frost bite and mortar shrapnel and he received The Purple Heart in April 1945 (one of approximately 5,193 awarded to his comrades). He participated as well in the Liberation of Pilsen in May 1945. The Second Infantry Division participated in five campaigns in the ETO, including the Elsenborn Ridge Defense from December 20, 1944 until January 29, 1945 during the Battle of the Bulge-as it has been said-The Germans were defeated at Elsenborn and the Battle was won in Bastogne. It served approximately 337 days in combat, with 320 in contact with the enemy, including 209 straight days in contact with the enemy. It traveled approximately 1,750 miles in combat from Omaha Beach to Pilsen, capturing approximately 70,300 prisoners of war. The division sustained over 15,000 casualties during this period, including nearly 3,000 killed in action. The Second Infantry Division is also a recognized Liberating Unit, having been involved in the liberation of Leipzig Schönefeld (Buchenwald subcamp) and Spergau (labor education camp) in April 1945. Like so many veterans, he spoke little about his experiences during the war. After active duty he served in the U.S. Army Reserves where he retired as an SFC. He was also a member of the DAV. He died in October 1983 after having served nearly 30 years in defense of our co</div><a class='btn btn-primary btn-sm mt-2 remember-wall-toggle-long-description' onclick='initRememberWallToggleLongDescriptionBtn(this)'>Learn more</a> Anthony E.
