Extra! Memorial to Be Named after Ronfather

On Memorial Day, the Kootenai County Veterans Memorial Plaza is being named in my father’s honor. There is a grand noontime ceremony planned that will also honor SPC Robert Benson, a Post Falls native who died in Iraq in 2003. While I’ve taken care of many of the details the one thing I delegated was the weather. Dear old Dad is in charge of using his Heavenly vantage point to see to it that we all stay dry.

DFO: On honor that’s totally deserving. Let’s see if I can blindly conjure a photo from home. Bingo. I did it.
