Be Thou at Peace
Folks, I have just learned this morning that Don Karr, a long time member of our chapter, passed away at the Dallas VA Hospital on February 4, 2010. He died from complications of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder and Congestive Heart Failure. Don was cremated and his ashes were sent to his sister and aunt in Pueblo, Colorado. Final disposition is pending.
Don was a life member of the SFA. He was a 100 % disabled veteran and was retired from the U.S. Army as a SFC E7, serving with both the active duty and reserve Special Forces. He was a veteran of Vietnam, where he served a tour with MACSOG, CCN.; He also served with the 20th SFG during Operation "Desert Storm" in 1991.
