THE WALL OF FACES

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrances from those who knew you are touching and reflect their admiration and respect for you. As long as you are remembered you will always be with us….

My first cousin was John Robert Miller. John was born 8/25/1945 and I was born 9/23/1943. Both of us were born in Sullivan, IN. He and his parents Robert and Margaret Lee (Bedwell) Miller who were from Sullivan moved to Detroit, MI area after Robert came home from WWII where he served in the US Navy. John' Mother and my Mother Maxine Lucille (Bedwell) Pittman were sisters. My father was Dennis Merrill Pittman from Farmersburg, IN which is in Sullivan County a few miles south of Terre Haute, IN. Dennis served four years in the US Army during WWII. He was stationed in Alaska and then was in the Pacific from Australia to Japan. The Pittman continued to live in Sullivan and Jasonville, IN close to Shakamak State Park. I was in the US Army from 1967 through 1974. My younger brother Roger Merrill Pittman was in the US Air Force during those years. Michael Brent Pittman Brownsburg, IN Facebook.com/mbrentpittmanindiana

Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.
