Last spring, on a family cruise, Noah and Zack hooked up with some kids that included Evan Masterson of Woodbury, and have stayed in contact via Facebook. On April 8 of this year, Evan's brother, Conor Masterson, was killed by a bomb in Afghanistan. In a photo on the front page of today's Star Tribune, you can see Conor's gravestone at Fort Snelling National Cemetery.
Small world. Sad one too, sometimes.

On Memorial Day, a small-world moment
