If Alton Harvey had not gotten involved and asked for those specific documents they would never have found the gravesite. The pair needed closure along with the rest of the family and they had finally received it. Peggy felt as though a weight had been lifted off of her shoulders, after seven decades she deserved this feeling. She knew without a doubt he was honorable and that his life’s purpose was to help people. Billie will forever be a hero. Peggy never remarried nor lost the desire to search for her husband of just six weeks.
