I met Bernie and remember his tenure as President. He was a stand up guy and will be missed. I only wish I was closer to upstate NY so I could make the service.
Rest in peace.

It is with much sadness and regret that I must inform you that PP/Chairman Robert O'Brien passed away last night. As it stands now the following is the most current information available:
Viewing to be held on Thursday evening, 23 October 2003 at the Jernigan Warren Funeral Home, 545 Ramsey St, Fayetteville, NC. The phone #: (910) 483-1331
Services will be held on Friday morning at the 82nd Abn Div Main Chapel, on Ardennes. Time and specifics to follow when they are made available.
PP and National Directors, please initiate your alert rosters (if you have not already done so), all others please make this information available to all you have contact with.
Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American GI. One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.
