Edgar Kimball was my brother, he was one of 15 children,he was the first born son to Ralph and Vera Kimball. He was a great son and soldier! Our family is so very proud of the soldier that he was. His family still misses him terribly. He was a TRUE HERO who died protecting his country. RIP Honored by Zella Elmore [2013-07-29 00:49:35]
