Dear Liston Family,

It is with deep sadness that I read of COL Liston's death. He was my commanding officer at the 308th CA GP in the early 1970's. COL Liston was a gentleman and an outstanding officer who earned the respect and admiration of all those with whom he served. He will be missed and fondly remembered by his military colleagues. I shall remember COL Liston in my prayers.

I WAS THINKING OF MR.LISTON AND KELLY H.S. LAST WEEK. HE AND OTHER TEACHERS WERE VERY NICE TO A KID FROM 18TH & HALSTED WHO NEEDED A LOT OF HELP.

Dear Pat and Liston Family,

We send you our deepest sympathy on the loss of Jim. Over the years we have prayed for Jim so often and now he is at peace with our Lord.

Our memories of Jim will always be when he was visiting Pompano Beach, Florida. We recall your Dad inviting all of us to meet at the Sea Watch for dinner. He was so nice to all of us and we had a great time. He insisted that all of us get the huge hot fudge sundaes for dessert and he loved seeing us happily stuff ourselves. Those were happy times for the Callahans and we will always remember them.

We hope it is a comfort to you that our Mom, Jane, will continue to be a dear friend to your Mom and she will be there to help her cope with this sad loss.

May all of your fondest memories of your Dad bring smiles to your faces and we are sure your Dad knows all of you loved him very much.

God's blessings on all of you.

Love,

Jane, Barb, Bob and Maribeth Callahan

OUR PRAYERS GO OUT TO THE LISTON FAMILY AND CLOSE FRIENDS.

Brain, Kiki and the Liston Family: Our prayers are with you and your family, this day and the weeks and months ahead. We are so proud of your father's family legacy and his devoted service to our country. May he rest in the hands of our Lord forever...
