In these photos, two young men in their Naval service uniforms fold and present a United States flag to Jeff Jagosh, one of the children of the recently deceased Enumclaw couple Joseph and LaDonna Jagosh. Joe, a Korean War veteran who served on the USS Bremerton-130 during the Blockade of Wonsan, was given military honors during a ceremony with the family Friday at Enumclaw Evergreen Memorial Park, including the playing of Taps and a gun salute. VFW Honor Guard Chair Al Zarb led the local VFW Post 1949 in the ceremony. LaDonna died this June at the age of 84, and Joseph died a few weeks later at 89; the two were married for 65 years. They will be buried at the cemetery with their son Dan, who died at the age of 20.
