Ssgt. Anthony's mother, Brenda, and his friend Jack continue his mission in seeking out, stabilizing and caring for forgotten
cemeteries. Anthony is always with us in Spirit and guides us through the woods and thickest of brier bush and overgrowth
to locate cemeteries.
As of this date, Brenda and Jack are maintaining seven cemeteries within Onslow County, North Carolina (southeastern
region). Each hold veterans who have been forgotten not only by the general public but, also by the veteran's own family
members.
One African American veteran of the Spanish-American War, James Blackwell, Pvt, U.S. Army, is the only African
American veteran of this specific war ever known to exist within Onslow County. Before Ssgt. Goodwin's mission and the
help of Jack and Brenda, Private Blackwell had never been "officially" recognized, until 2007, for his service to his
country.

Pvt. Blackwell was finally publically recognized during a lecture, to a group of prominate citizens.

If not for the once fallen metal name plate (now shown) over time this grave would be lost.
Please purchase a stocking or two from Brenda. If you do not have a veteran within your immediate
family, donate a few to your local VFW or DAV organizations. A U.S.O. (United Servicemen (and -women) Organization)
near you would also be a great place to buy and donate a stocking or two.
