LESLIE, MI — A 20-year-old US Army Sergeant killed in action in the Korea War has finally been brought home to Leslie after being missing in action since November 1950.
William Cavender’s remains were identified through DNA analysis in May 2020 after being found in North Korea. He was buried yesterday next to his parents in St. Cornelius and Cyprian Parish Cemetery near Leslie, just south of Dansville. Cavender’s younger sisters say they are grateful to give him a proper burial.
