Members of the USS St Lo and USS Dennis family,
Greetings St. Lo and Dennis families! Here’s hoping all of you have had a safe and healthy year. Due to the pandemic, we will not meet up this year for the reunion as planned in New Orleans, rather we will together watch a re-broadcast of the memorial service from St. Pete in 2018.
On Sunday, October 25th, 2020, at 12 o’clock noon Eastern Time, you can watch the memorial using either of the links below, and join others in commenting in real-time. We hope you can take the time to reflect on the sacrifice made and heroism exhibited on October 25th, 1944, during the Battle Off Samar.

The memorial service is our way of giving respect for those who made the ultimate sacrifice. During these very unfortunate times, we hope you join us in watching the service. Should you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me anytime either thru email or phone call. Looking forward to seeing you all again in 2021.
Respectfully yours,
