Well, this is the conslusion of quite a bit of Mark's personalhistory, and I am grateful to him<br />

in providing it for use in thesegenealogical stories.<br />

nominated for Navy Chaplain of the Year(nominated <strong>from</strong> 12 chaplains in claimancy, one of<br />

12 nominees <strong>from</strong>about 1,000 Navy chaplains). Well, I think you can see that we canfeel<br />

proud and blessed to have a family member recognized for suchgood work in an<br />

organization as important as the United States NavyChaplaincy.<br />
