Time flies...
 

The 4 year-old boy on the left is standing in the Fredericksburg National Cemetery at the grave of Cleora Stuart Segar Harrison, wife of Captain Gunyon M. Harrison. She was born Feb. 14, 1892 and died on Nov. 9, 1975. Her husband was a VMI graduate, organizer of a rifle club at Westhampton College, commander of Company K in Fredericksburg’s first National Guard Unit, and the director of public safety for the city. The nearly 18-year old man on the right graduated with honors from Massaponax High School and will be attending the University of Northwestern of Ohio in August as part of their High-Performance Motor Sports program. He plans to engineer and fabricate race cars. Congrats Dylan, we are so proud of you! (One down, three to go.)
