It is with profound sorrow that I must inform you of the passing of my father,
Benjamin F. Melkun, Sr. He was 89 Years old and died peacefully in his sleep.
We should all be that blessed. Funeral arrangements are being made in New York.
My father was very proud of his service as a Sergeant with the 78th infantry
Division during WW2, but I always told him that his and my mothers greatest
accomplishment was raising and loving four children they could be proud of,
with all the sacrifices that entails. I believe that God has taken my father
into His arms, and granted him every soldiers dream, eternal peace. Ken Melkun,
