In memoriam
The time was
circa 1961.
His name was
Jim Poindexter.
He died
around age 13 from Leukemia, and in a Naval Hospital in Southern California.
Think about
all the things he missed, like Vietnam and the Reagan era.
Think about
the Family and Woman whose Family that they might have had, and raised to
adulthood.
If you buy
the line that we are only forgotten when nobody remembers us anymore, then Jim
Poindexter is still remembered in 2015.
