1941 Michael Roy CANNON
1944 Patrick James CANNON
Michael's younger brother, Patrick (1944-2003) was also a veteran having served in the U.S. Army in Vietnam, rising to the rank of 1Sgt.
Michael's date of birth shown on his gravestone and shown in his obituary are both incorrect. Records in the Texas Birth Index (1903-1997, 1941 births, p 329 show he was born 19 May 1941 in Jefferson County, TX in which Beaumont is located. Considering the shock and grief the family was surely feeling upon his sudden, early and tragic death, it's understandable that some inaccuracies in the information provided at that time occurred.
