With great pride and as a small token of my appreciation, I am pleased to submit this tribute in loving honor of my Dad and also Vietnam veteran, Wendell ?Skip? Overlock, Sr., of Hermon.
Often times it is thought of but unfortunately left unsaid, but I want my father to know that I deeply admire him and am so proud of him for serving and standing up for our country especially during hard times in Vietnam. In my eyes, he?s a hero.
Although, I wasn?t born until some time after he came back home, I am very grateful for his service, as well as for those fighting today to protect our homeland. My heart goes out to the many families who their loved one never made it back home. We are so blessed that even with the multitude of deaths in Vietnam that God chose to spare my Dad?s life and send him back to us.
I love you, Dad!
