Welcome

This website was created to honor my father, Emmett Gibson.

He passed away in 1958 at the age of 42. I was 3 years old when he died.

Creating this website has allowed me to become much closer to my father’s memory. It is my hope that by reading through the information on this website you will come to know my father as well.

I encourage you to start by reading his biography here. Then go on to read the series of newspaper columns he wrote about his time in the Philippines at the outset of WWII.

I welcome your comments and suggestions.
