SUMMARY:PFC Morris Canady Reinternment
DESCRIPTION:SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT \nAs we prepare for the memorial and reinternment  services for WWII PFC Marine Morris E. Canady\,  on Saturday\, 28 September;  we wish to inform all that the remains of PFC Morris Canady\, USMC will arrive at the Richmond International Airport on Wednesday\, September 18 at 1443. Canady family members\, Virginia State Police\, Patriot Guard Riders\, fellow Legionnaires\, veterans are expected to meet and accompany PFC Canady to Bedford. This is under the continued official escort of Charlie Company\, 4th Combat Engineer Battalion\, 4th division of the United States Marine Corps. \nCanady\, who was born and raised in Goode\, served in WWII as a Marine private first class and was killed in action in September 1942 on the island of Guadalcanal in the South Pacific. His remains were buried on Guadalcanal near where he was killed. Efforts to locate and recover his remains in the 1940s were unsuccessful\, but in recent years the remains were located\, recovered\, and identified and are being returned to family in Goode for burial\, 82 years later. \nMorris Canady was the first Bedford County serviceman to be killed or die of other causes in WWII after the U.S. entered the war. The name of the local American Legion post\, the Board Canady American Legion Post 54\, honors Canady and Howard E. Board\, the first Bedford County serviceman killed in WWI. \nA memorial service is planned for 12 noon at the chapel of the Tharp Funeral Home and Crematory\, 320 N. Bridge Street in Bedford. Burial will follow at the Canady family plot at the Virginia Memorial Park\, 11490 Forest Road\, Forest\, VA. \nMembers of the U.S. Marine Corps and the American Legion Post 54 will render military honors. Veterans and members of the public are welcome to join the family at the memorial service and burial. \nFor further information\, please contact American Legion Post 54 Commander Nick Soukhanov at 540-875-9014\, or Tharp Funeral Home and Crematory\, 540-586-3443.
