| At the funeral of David King Lyster there was a
photo presentation that contained both pictures we have
on file and a number of new ones that we don't have. The
funeral gave all who attended a real feeling of a war
hero who came home and raised a family in a small
community in Texas. He was very well thought of a a
leader in the community and he affected the community as
much as he did the military community. Everyone valued
his wisdom and in all he did he was a man who knew his
God and lived to serve him just as he did his family and
county. Paul West, Gayle Leonard and I came much closer
to another hero of the "Greatest Generation."....Harry
