Sisters visit The Freedom Rock®

Sisters Darlene (Wilson) Scar and Doris (Wilson) Neal at the original Freedom Rock® south of Interstate 80, between Menlo and Greenfield, Iowa, November 21, 2009.
They’d be so pleased to know that their own five brothers are featured on the Dallas County Freedom Rock® near Minburn, which was dedicated ten years later.
The five brothers of Doris and Darlene are remembered on the Dallas County Freedom Rock@ at Minburn, Iowa, only a couple of miles from where the family lived as tenant farmers during the war. Five brothers served. Only two came home.
By then, both Doris and Darlene had died, both living to the age of 97, just like their mother, Leora Goff Wilson. They knew I was working on a book to remember the unbelievable price their family paid during the World War II years. It was published a month after the Dallas County Freedom Rock® was dedicated.
