Marlington Honors Veterans
On Friday, November 10, the Marlington Alumni Association (MAA) joined with members of the Class of 1966 to honor fallen classmates at the annual Marlington High School Veterans Day Program.
While planning their 50th reunion two years ago, 1966 classmates discovered that in Stark County, the Class of 1966 lost more men in military service than any other classes. Marlington's Class of 1966 lost three alumni, and so they set about to honor those fallen by establishing an MAA scholarship in their memory, as well as a plaque designed to honor all fallen Marlington Alumni.
The plaque was presented by Class of ’66 representative Tom Swartz and MAA President Vondea Sheaffer during the program along with biographic information about the Marlington alums who have given all in military service to our Country.
In order of presentation: Francis Vadas, a 1942 graduate of Marlboro High School, was just 21 years old when he was killed in France during WWII; Alvis Faverty, a 1965 Marlington High School graduate, died August 18, 1968 in Vietnam at the age of 21; Denny Wahl, graduated in1966 and was killed in Vietnam July 21, 1967; Rome Edward Dimmerling (Eddie) graduated in 1966 and died in Vietnam at the age of 19 on April 20, 1968;
William Harley Prather (Bill) graduated in 1966 and died in Vietnam on September 12, 1968; Ronald Garrison died January 21, 1971 in Vietnam; and Ashley White, a 2005 graduate died October 22, 2011 in Afghanistan
at the age of 24. The plaque honoring these alums will hang in the hallway of the high school as a reminder of the greatest sacrifice given.
