This site is dedicated to my father, Dave Walden; my wife's father, John Remeikis; and my wife's uncle, Frank Marsonek. All three gentlemen served our country in WWII, with Frank surviving being a POW during the Battle of the Bulge. All three are members of what I call "the greatest generation in our young country's history." John Remeikis immigrated from Lithuania in 1913 at the age of four. He earned his citizenship by proudly serving his country in WWII. Each man was honest, humble, kind, and hard-working. There could not have been better role models for my wife and me.
