Richard Goward, nephew of Clayton and Dorothy Brown, was killed in Iraq last week. It was not a combat fatality. Evidently he was driving a truck in a convoy during a sand storm when he struck the vehicle in front of his. He was the only National Guardsman to be killed thus far. Richard leaves behind a wife and two young daughters.
