Thinking Of My Father



While I was working at Yankee Stadium in New York this Memorial Day weekend, I learned that my father's name - "Theodore Roosevelt Olden, Tec 4, U.S. Army"- was being read out loud at the National Cemetery in Riverside, California. Daddy was buried there after he passed in 1986. His name and the names of hundreds of others who served their country in the military and are interred in Riverside, are being read aloud by dozens of volunteers this weekend.
