    He was my wife's grandfather. He passed away this morning at age 95. www.veterantributes.org/TributeDetail.php?recordID=584

    Daniel Botts Sorry to hear of Mr. Powell's passing and your family's loss. I hope your wife, your family and her grandfather had opportunity to see all the photos in this collection posted by the San Diego Air & Space Museum (SDASM). www.flickr.com/photos/sdasmarchives/sets/72157637850910154 As you may already know, he appears in quite a number of them. www.flickr.com/photos/tags/Punchy%20Powell

    They did. I shared them with him the last time I was there. He had only seen a couple of them before so they were a welcome surprise to him. Thanks so much for making these available to share his stories.

    Daniel Botts That's great to hear. I can't take credit for providing the photos. That would be the SDASM. Apparently an anonymous donor provided them to the SDASM and they shared them here through their Flickr photostream. I just used some spare time trying to identify those in the photos through comments and "tags" so that they can be remembered and, maybe, members of their families could discover them while "Googling." To learn that you were able to find these photos and share them with him and your family is an outcome beyond my best hopes when I started tagging and commenting on them. I wish you and your family all the peace and comfort in the wake of Mr. Powell's loss, and I hope these photos will perpetuate his memory for many more years to come.
