I was hoping someone on this forum might know where Ralph Wilbur "Rainbow" Trout (1922-1995) is buried. Ralph died 26 Aug 1995 in Lutz, Hillsborough, FL. His wife, Mary Jane died in the same year.
Ralph was a co-pilot on the "I'll Be Seeing You." He flew with Joe Cromer in the 612th. Ralph was the founding secretary-treasurer of the association.
Any assistance on his actual burial location (cemetery) would help us honor his service to Our Country appropriately.
Thank you so much!
Craig H. Trout

It doesn't indicated where he was buried just a write up from his son David Trout who at the time was a Resterant Manager of the Criterion Grill in Baltimore Maryland. Mary Jane Trout preceeded him earlier in the year 31 May 1995 and was Cremated. The funeral home was Curry & Son Funeral Home. That was in Tampa Florida.
