Rites Slated For Slain Mercenary Gearhart
Daniel Gearhart's family plans private funeral services at Holy Redeemer Church in Kensington Maryland for the slain mercenary. His body was finally brought home from Angola after diplomatic roadblocks and officials collected 5,000 for the return and 3,000 more to aid his widow and four children. Gearhart, a 34 year old Vietnam veteran, left last February to raise money for mortgage and medical bills now totaling about 30,000. His wife Sheila says he did not tell her where he went and she has not seen him since.
