Navy
ServiceI can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction: “I served in the United States Navy.”
- John F. Kennedy
Served: December 24, 1942 –June 5, 1946
U.S. Naval Training Station – February 22, 1943
The U.S.S. Joseph E. Connelly
USS Joseph E. Connolly (DE-450) was a John C. Butler-class destroyer escort acquired by the U.S. Navy during World War II. The primary purpose of the
destroyer escort was to escort and protect ships in convoy, in addition to other tasks as assigned, such as patrol or radar picket.
The U.S.S. Dionne
USS Dionne (DE-261) was an Evarts-class destroyer escort of the United States Navy during World War II. She was sent off into the Pacific Ocean to
protect convoys and other ships from Japanese submarines and fighter aircraft. She performed escort and antisubmarine operations in dangerous battle areas and returned home with six battle stars, a high number for a
ship of her type.

The love of a family is one of life’s greatest blessings.
I think togetherness is a very important ingredient to family life.
Our family is a circle of strength and love…
Family...like branches on a tree, we all grow in different directions, yet our roots remain as one.
Family…where life begins and love never ends.

A love like ours will endure beyond the years, beyond the tears, and well after we leave this earth.
Thank you all…
We can't thank you all enough for your thoughts. It
is comforting to have so many friends praying for
our family during this difficult time. It is with deep
appreciation that we say thank you for the many
expressions of love, kindness and support shown to
us. Thank you for all you’ve done.
