I talked to the grandson last night and he was able to give me some more information. Here is what he told me.
"His name was Donald William Myers. I think he was born in July 1921, and he passed in April of 1981. I believe he entered the army in 1941. He married my grandmother Freada Maxine Woods in 1942."
I tried my best to search for this man on the national archives database, but I couldn't find a Donald Myers with a 'W' middle initial for the state of Illinois. Maybe he resided in another state when he joined the army? I also looked high and low for any obituaries online, but sadly I came up empty handed. He passed quite a few years back, so I assume that's why I'm having such a hard time finding his obituary.
Best Regards- Jarret
