About | Dana joined the Army, and although I do not know much I do know that he died in a head-on collision near Al Hillah, Iraq on 07-11-04. Dana was simply a nice guy. We were on the same bus route and he lived just a few houses up from me. Most days Dana had a smile on his face. On the day of the Senior class photo I told Dana I was leaving CS, and Dana told me, "Guess I'll see you around and if not, maybe I'll see ya' in 10 years," and he laughed and walked away. I believe and have been told he married his high school sweetheart and had a family of his own. I wanted to honor Dana and his family as Memorial Day approaches to say "thank-you" although it does not scratch the surface for all those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice for our country. However, Memorial Day or not all of our service members should be remembered, always. For all those who are in service to our country from any class of AAHS...thanks and God bless. http://www.fallenheroesmemorial.com/oif/profiles/wilsondanan.html http://projects.washingtonpost.com/fallen/dates/2004/jul/11/dana-n-wilson/ Glynnita Nicholson-Quinones |
