Past Department Commander Michael A Gombar recently passed on to Post Everlasting.

He served as our 77th Department Commander from 1993 to 1994, and actively served in the leadership of Post 150, District 20, Area 6, and in several National Appointments.

Funeral services were held on August 21 at the San Fernando Mission Church, with the reception following at the Knollwood Country Club.

Thank you to everyone who showed up to pay their respects to Past Department Commander Gombar.

His service to this country, as well as to The American Legion, will never be forgotten.
