This obituary caught my eye and while reading it I realized that this man was my dad’s uncle (John H. McLaughlin). I noticed that my grandfather, who passed away when my dad was still a teenager was his brother. Anyway, I just wanted to say that I am sorry for your loss. My dad died towards the end of last year and I miss him greatly.
If anyone has any interest in connecting, to help update the family tree, I would like that very much. I can be reached at jeannem166@aol.com or you can message me on Facebook at Jeanne McLaughlin Blaettler.
