    You have any info on Sgt Holmquist.

    Remember I served with Col Holquist and knew his sons. They would be older than the Sgt but could be one of their sons.

    No I haven't heard any rumors to that effect. I was going to post the same question to you.

    I'll keep my ears open though.

    The Sgt would be about the right age to be a son/nephew of the Col (Todd) Holmquist I worked for.

    Can't find anything to link Todd to Wisconsin, the Sgt's home.

    Gary was Todds Dad who was who I worked for. That's a name that will stick with you and I have not seen it except for that family So as son as I saw Holmquist I started wondering.

    From Gary's Obit tell me they were not a Marine Family.

    quote:He is survived by his wife Mary (Hunter) Holmquist of Lolo; three sons, Maj. Todd Holmquist (Melanie) of Camp Pendleton, Calif., Troy Holmquist (Carey) of Kittanning, Pa., and Maj. Tyler Holmquist (Carey) of Camp Pendleton, Calif.; daughter Tamara Peapealalo (J.J.) of Murrieta, Calif.; 10 grandchildren; mother Jean (Holmquist) Dykeman and stepfather Dean Dykeman; brother Steve Holmquist of St. Cloud, Minn.; sister Jody Nygaard of Albert Lea, Minn.; stepmother Betty (Hovden) Holmquist of Kasson, Minn.; half sister Pam Holmquist of Kasson; and half sister Shelly Holmquist (1st Sgt. USMC retired) of Hubert, N.C.

    I grew up in Burien, a south Seattle suburb and went to school with a Gary Holmquist.
    He would be 67 like me. Could this be the same Gary?
