Hometown Soldier Killed in Iraq
Re: Orchard Park Soldier Laid To Rest
David Roustum was from my hometown and graduated from the same high school that I did. If we were Korean, not only would we have the hometown-bond but he'd also be my hubae (후배 後輩), often translated as "junior." The relationship might be similar to two people who were members of the same fraternity at different times but who've never met.
More importantly, David Roustum was a Catholic (like 80% of people from the Buffalo area). Thus, he's my brother in the Faith. I'll pray for him and his family.
David Roustum, Requiescat in Pace

Redeemed by Our Savior, I work out my salvation with fear and trembling in Pohang, South Korea, where I live with my wife, daughter, and son and teach English at a science and technology university. Baptized a Methodist and raised a Missouri Synod Lutheran in Buffalo, NY, I spent six years as a guest of the Anglican Communion before being received by the Grace of God into the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church on the Feast of Saint Andrew, my patron, anno domini 2002.
