Men Express Themselves |
|
Frederick Irving
With such divides across America. With such vitriol in our political scene. With such distrust of other nations and their people. America needs a man such as this, who was valued by many, including Presidents and leaders abroad.
This man was a scholar. A pilot during WWII who was captured and tortured, and A man who knew that peace was needed, worldwide so that wars would never again need to be fought. Mr. Irving became a diplomat and eventually a U.S. Ambassador. He was also a devoted husband, father, gandfather, brother, and uncle. His passing is mourned by many.
