Years ago I worked with a Navy Lieutenant named Robert Rochau at Redcom 16 in Minneapolis in mid80s. When I told him I was from Kenosha, he said his grandmother lived here. If this is the same family I would love to be in touch with him again. He would've know me at the time as Lynne Bergemann. Please pass my email address to him. My sympathies to your family.
