From Frank Moore:
Everyone:
I have confirmed with Lew's daughter that the burial will be conducted on Thursday October 25, 2012 at 1400 at the Quantico National Cemetery. The burial services are open to the public and everyone is invited to attend, especially those in the Washington, D. C./Quantico local area.
I plan to attend the burial services if all goes well.
