Help Find John Alley

I don’t pretend that this little blog has much of a reach but, just in case, please keep an eye out for a missing person – especially if you or people you know are in the Pensacola, FL area. He’s the son of a dear friend of mine.

Tips can be submitted via helpfindjohn.info.

Update:

I’m very sad to report that John’s body was just found on the beach near the accident site. I know that the family racked up some expenses during the search, in case you’d still like to hit the PayPal button on the web site linked above. I’m sure that any surplus would go to John’s widow.

Last Update:

I received this announcement from John’s mom, who said I could pass it along.

John Harold Alley, 26, passed away on Saturday, 24 May 2008, in Pensacola,
Florida. He was a Second Lieutenant in the United States Air Force and was
stationed at NAS Whiting Field, Florida where he was in pilot training.

A memorial service will be held in the theater at NAS Whiting Field in
Milton, FL at 10am on Saturday, 31 May 2008, where he will be posthumously
commissioned a First Lieutenant and receive his pilot wings. A funeral will
be held in Bountiful, UT at the Bountiful Heights Stake Center (33 S. Moss
Hill Drive) at 11 am on Friday, 6 June 2008. A visitation will be held
Thursday evening from 6 to 8 at Russon Brothers Mortuary (295 North Main,
