The foregoing telegram received by the wife at Cleveland and sent on to 
relatives here, brought the sad news that another Payette boy has made the 
supreme sacrifice for this country.

Payette with his parents, when he was ten, attended local schools and graduated

left for the San Diego training station June 20, 1941.  Following preliminary 
training he became a medical technician 2/c.  He left the U. S. Nov. 22, 1943
