It is with a heavy heart that Chapter 47 announces its "Chapter Gold Star Parents," Barbara and Frank Alford have lost Barbara to complications from her recent heart surgery. Their Son, Michael, an Army Medic, was KIA in Vietnam in 1968. Barbara is with Michael again, and will be buried near him at Riverside National Cemetery. May you rest in peace, Barbara...and give Michael a big hug from all of us at Chapter 47.
As the names on the Wall reflect the images of those visiting the Memorial, those behind the Wall are waiting for us on the other side.
Barbara and her dear son Michael have made that connection.
Frank Alford now holds Michael's memory for the living to share, and one day too he, Barbara, and Michael will be together again.
