hey Midnight
Just a Thanks to you for writing a Note on Legacy for 1st Sgt. Jim Priestap.
Thought the name looked familiar-Entire community was kinda knocked out by it. For the Wake people in our Area(Small) stood in line for 3 hrs. to pay their respects to Jim and his family. State Flags in the Entire State were flown Half-Mast On Tuesday, the Funeral, it was One LONG Procession from Iron Mountain all the way to Felch(about 30 miles) and people lined the route the entire way. Makes you proud to be a Yooper and don't have those whacko's up here protesting Military Funerals(It was a Full Military Honors Funeral). Thanks!!!
