Served in Vietnam. Cause of death is NASH, which is caused by Agent Orange. Was one of the men that left an impression on everyone he mets, life. Was a big teddy bear but was also tough when needed to be. I loved him so much. Will be very missed!!

From a fellow Vietnam veteran my deepest condolences for your loss. I've know many Vietnam war vets who suffered from this ailment. It's devastating that he, and his family had to endure this disease.

God rest his soul and Semper fi!!

RIP to your father-in-law.

I visited one of my uncle’s graves yesterday. He was a Vietnam vet (USMC) as well. He was not a casualty of Agent Orange, but was of PTSD. He became an alcoholic and abused drugs for twenty years after he came home. He sobered up for the last decade of his life, but it was a hard life.

Vietnam was definitely a shitty war.
