	Headstone for Thomas Foster Strahorn Thomas, his second wife Rebecca Jane Kellogg, and their son Frank Kellogg Strahorn are all buried in the same plot in Rosedale Cemetery, just west of downtown Los Angeles, according to cemetery records there. We suspect the headstone was installed by Thomas' son Robert Edmund Strahorn after Robert became wealthy, since Thomas was a man of modest means. A smaller stone can be seen in front of the larger one, which reads, "T.F.S. Husband," possibly an earlier installation. No headstone is in evidence for Rebecca Jane Kellogg, even though she is buried in the same plot, but she was not Robert E. Strahorn's mother. (a curious omission -Ed) Robert's mother Rebecca Emmert has a substantial headstone in Boalsburg, Pennsylvania alongside her parents, possibly also paid for by Robert.

	John's response to a 1984 tribute to Glenn Miller on KCET. John's children always knew of his fondness for the music of the big bands, as he had recordings of these bands in many formats and played them often. But we were surprised by the emotional content of this short piece, as most of John's journal writings were narrative matter-of-fact notations. We can't help but wonder what happened during those early war years that engendered this enduring emotional response.	John Miles ZENTMYER	21 Jun 2022
