RIP Marine Raider Dog Handler Mr. Homer Finley

[Eric Queen]

It was a gut punch for me recently to have received a letter from Homer's son informing me that he had passed away in late August. 

 

He was truly one of the nicest human beings I have ever known and I was so privileged to have been able to call him a friend.
