Please Note: There is a death date discrepancy - The Culpeper National Cemetery database, The U.S. Department of Veteran's Affairs, The U.S. Veteran's Gravesite database and the obituary list death as 2 March 1998; the gravestone has 3 March 1998; and the SSDI list death on 15 March 1998. The death date on the memorial will remain as 3 March 1998 as that is what's shown on the gravestone.
