GRAND HAVEN, Mich. â June Boone s wish was for her son, Richard, to be buried beside her in the family plot at Lake Forest Cemetery in Grand Haven.
Richard Boone was a Vietnam Veteran. He died at a Florida rehab toward the end of 2020 after years of struggling.
Richard s ashes found their way to Michigan, but he had grown apart from his family through the years.
When members of the Grand Haven American Legion heard about that, they got to work.
