A Vietnam War pilot who was missing in action for more than 50 years will be buried with his mother in their family plot at the Mabton Cemetery in Yakima Valley next month.
U.S. Naval Reserve Cmdr. Paul Claude Charvet, who grew up on a Grandview hop farm and was 26 years old when he was killed in Vietnam, was accounted for March 1, 2021. Federal officials announced confirmation of remains as his in January last year, and his remains were given to his family in a Navy ceremony later that month in Anchorage, Alaska.
His mother, Blanche Fleming Charvet, was living in Anchorage before she died at age 101 in August. She was cremated, as was Paul Charvet. His sisters Lorraine Charvet of Anchorage and Dona Re’ Shute, who lives in New Jersey, have kept their ashes.
On April 14, mother and son will be buried at the Mabton Cemetery with Blanche Charvet’s husband of 64 years, Raymond Paul “Ray” Charvet. Ray Charvet died at age 88 in July 2004.
A funeral Mass for Paul and Blanche Charvet will begin at 11 a.m. April 14 at Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church at 1201 Missouri Ave. in Grandview. Shute expects people will begin arriving at the Mabton Cemetery at 881 Vance Road around 12:30 p.m.
Members of the Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association will escort family members to the cemetery, Shute said, followed by a flag ceremony by Navy personnel. The Prosser VFW will perform a 21-gun salute, and a Navy bugler will play taps. A chaplain will speak and a priest will conduct the interment, she said.
