In Memoriam for Howard Schreiner, Air Force, Honored by Longview Funeral Home & Cemetery
In memory of my dad who gave 25 years of his life serving our country. He was a true patriot and believed this was the greatest nation on earth. He raised us to believe in this country, its history and its future. So thankful for a man who was strong and brave. He served in the U.S., Germany and Vietnam. Thank you for the memories!
