Talk:USS Guest (DD-472)/@comment-2602:30A:2E79:E00:EC12:1FAA:8C74:6C5E-20180722204906

Dad, Joseph S. Valles originally from Powell, Wyoming  was a member of the USS Guest crew as a Coxman  in 1945. I was hoping to connect with any of his crew who might have known him. He loved the Navy and joined at 16 ! I can believe he is gone. He passed away at 91 this last April 19, 2018. I only had 2 Studio official  photos of Dad which i included in  a collection of other Navy photos that I am trying to recreate in a photo album in his memory of the experience he woke up to each day that he fought for The Good Old U S of A. aboard the high seas for 3 years or maybe it was 4. i wish he was here so he could enjoy his album. All his life he surrounded himself with photos that he bought frames for his pictures of  all whom he loved. We are so  proud of our Dad and Mom they are the best and how they are loved and missed. Dad's life was full and surrounded by us and his friends. He was able to live a normal life and didn't have little complaint. He loved his family and carried his faith in his heart without conceit. God better be good to him! Thanks for any info that you can provide me with. RichardJValles@aol.com (562) 416-8826
