In loving memory of my grand uncle,
WAYNE FEWELL

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wayne was killed in action during WWII. He was only 19 years old. He was born to Floy (Davis) and Benjamin C. Fewell. He had one full sister, Goldie, who passed away as a toddler in 1931. His mother, Floy, remarried that same year to James Lewis and from this union blessed Wayne with 3 half-sisters and 5 half-brothers.

(PFC Wayne W. Fewell, ser. no. 38603157, enlisted Jan. 19, 1944 in Little Rock, Arkansas from Saline County, Ark.. His civilian occupation was 'driver'. He was assigned to the 271st Inf. Regt. of the 69th Inf. Division ("Deadeye"). KIA on Jan. 28, 1945, five days after the unit landed in France.)

THE COST OF FREEDOM...
He died serving our country,
in a land far away.
He gave his life for freedom.
They buried him today.

He loved family more than life,
and had to do what's right.
To protect them and his country,
he joined in the fight.

Next time you see a soldier,
don't just pass him by.
Thank him for his service.
He might be next to die.

How great the cost of freedom.
How brave those who defend.
Protect them Lord, that they may
safely come back home again.
~Ron Tranmer
