Looking for a bit of assistance from anyone in the Aurora area. We found a WW2 Good Conduct Medal in the Denton, Texas, area, for a Lem Thomas Buford, born in 1919, and have tracked him to an address on S Andes in Aurora. Seems he passed away in 2007, but family is still listed there.

So, anyone in that area that can help us return it we would appreciate it. Ray, 'Esko' has had it restored with ribbon, and is mounted in a box. We are trying to find some sort of WW2 era pic in uniform so we can put it with the medal.

Would love to get it to someone to return and maybe get some pics. We hang out on coinshootingonline from the Houston area. Ray is in Denton Texas. Esko on that site and I am jas415


Thanks guys, and ladies.

As an FYI for anyone else reading this, I have made contact with Mr. Buford's daughter. She was happy with the news and I have given her contact information for Ray.

Ray received a call today and he is in the process of arranging some sort of return. Hopefully we can get the Fort Carson PAO to assist in this. Possible Monday on the anniversary of his death at his burial site. Ray is working on it.
Thanks again for your assistance. We were about at out wits end as how to get them to respond.
