4005	1914 BIRTH; TX,Coke-Robert Lee: Dean Edward Hallmar born 20 January 1914, son of Ollie D Hallmark and Roligh Amanda Ake Hallmark. 1942 DEATH: China-Shanghai: Dean Edward Hallmark died 15 October 1942, executed by the Japanese during World War II, Jimmy Dolittle Raid on Tokyo, Japan. "Hallmarks 1994" shows Dean bn, then killed in WW II-Jimmy Dolittle Raid on Tokyo, Japan... executed by Japanese. NOTES: Texas 1962: Ollie's boy Dean killed in WWII in Jimmy Do Little Raid in airplane. Fell into ocean when came down. "In 30 Seconds over Tokyo" movie honored Dean-heard them say "here comes Hallmark" before he was killed. An article 1993 in Smithsonian magazine "Tokyo Bombed! Doolittle Do'od It" by James A Cox pg 128, said that 3 men were executed by firing squad--Lieut. Wm Farrow, Lt Dean Hallmark & Sgt H Spatz. Info sent from Doyle Hallmark after runion went to in TX: The Doolittle Raid, 18 April 1942: Led by legendary flier Jimmy Doolittle, 16 US Army B-25 bombers broke through Japanese defenses on April 18, 1942 to strike Tokyo and other cities in broad daylight. The daring and dramatic raid stunned Japan, revived American morale, and signaled a new course for the Pacific War. (Dean is the son of Ollie Hallmark, grandson of Great Uncle Ed. Ollie's is daddy's 1st cousin). [Pam Hallmark Wagner: Dean Edward Hallmark, son of Ollie Hallmark, son of Richard Edmond Hallmark, son of James Minett Hallmark] "The engines of the 'Green Hornet,' piloted by Dean Hallmark, sputtered and failed 4 mins short of the coast. Hallmark brought the plane down in the stormy sea; the impact tore off a wing. Hallmark smashed through the windshield. After 4 hrs in high waves, Hallmark, copilot Robert Meder, & navigator Chase Nielsen made it to shore-cut, bleeding, & exhausted. Bombardier Wm Dieter & flight engineer/gunner Donald Fitzmaurice were both seriously injured in the crash; their bodies later washed ashore. Local Chinese fishermen tried to hide the survivors. But 3 days later Japanese soldiers captured all 3 men. Their ordeal was just beginning. The epilogue to the Tokyo raid was bitter. The Japanese held Barr, DeShazer, Farrow, Hallmark, Hite, Meder, Nielsen & Spatz. They would make them pay, man by man. The captors moved the survivors of "The Green Hornet" & "Bat Out of Hell" to Tokyo. There, handcuffed & leg-cuffed, the fliers were placed in the hands of Kempei Tai, the Japanese Army's military police, who knew how to make a man wonder whether life was worth living." Letter from Jimmy to parents (not delivered until after war): "Dear Mother & Dad...I went on a bombing mission because I was told to and because I am an Army pilot. I knew there would be some danger, but it was war... I never dreamed of this outcome... They have just told me I am liable for execution. I can hardly believe it... Mother, you try to stand up under this, and pray. And Dad, you do the same. And Sister, too. I don't know how to end this letter except by sending you all my love. "On Oct 15 1942, a black limousine entered the First Cemetery grounds outside of Shanghai. Farrow, Hallmark, & Spatz were brought out. Prison guards marched the men to 3 small wooden crosses situated 20 ft apart. The 3 Americans were made to kneel with their backs against the crosses. Guards removed the handcuffs & tied the prisoners' wrists to the cross-pieces. They wrapped the upper portions of the men's faces with white cloth, marking black "X's" just above the noses. A 6-man firing squad took positions 26 ft in front of the Americans. At the count, they pulled the triggers. There was no need to fire a second time." The coffins were taken to the Japanese Residents Association Crematorium, where the bodies were cremated. The askes were placed in small boxes & put on an altar at Kiangwan Prison. About a month later the boxes were removed & taken to the International Funeral Home in Shanghai where they remained until the end of the war. However, the names on the boxes were deliberately changed by unknown persons in an attempt to conceal the real identities. Fortunately, the record of the real & fictional names was found after the war, and the ashes were returned to the States for internment in Arlington Cemetery. Newspapers article from The Fredricksburg Standard, Wed., Sep 2 1992: "Doolittle Raider Presents POW Medal for Nimitz Display - article: A former Doolittle Raider from WWII presented a piece of history to the Admiral Nimitz Museum St Hist. Park August 21. Col. James (Herb) Macia, USAF, ret., presented the POW medal of Lt Dean Hallmark, pilot of one of the Doolittle crews, who was captured by the Japanese & executed. On hand for the ceremony marking the loan of the medal to the Nimitz were members of Hallmark's family -- Doyle Hallmark of Dallas & Laverne Newland of San Antonio. Hallmark was the pilot of crew 6, The Green Hornet, of the Doolittle Raiders, who staged a surprise attack on Japan early in WWII. Hallmark's plane ran out of fuel & was ditched off the coast of China. In 1988 the medals were awarded to the Doolittle Raiders, by Congress & among those were 4 posthumous medals. Macia took responsibility for finding the next of kin for those 4 men. The medal Macia presented to the Nimitz will be on display for approx 4 months & then returned to the family...

My brother, Steve Hallmark, a pallbearer. Friday, January 1, 2010, Life Sketch of Norma Dorine Hallmark Hawkins , Written by Eli Kit Hawkins I would like to thank all of you for being here today to remember Norma; especially those who have had to travel a long distance. I am very grateful for all the kindness and wonderful things you have said about Norma. Thanks to the Bishopric, the speakers and musicians for the many hours of preparation and your willingness to participate today. Thanks to those who are offering prayers. Thanks to the Relief Society for the food we will be eating later in the day. Thank you casket bearers, you are men of honor. Thank you all who have sent beautiful flowers. My cousin Steve Cherry who lives in San Jose, California, has set up a blog on the internet where you will be able to read stories, make comments and see pictures of Norma and my family, some of whom could not be here today. This is an ongoing effort that will continue for the next few days or weeks. The web site address is on your program. Thank you Steve. And a special thanks to our funeral director, Shawn Warenski, who has made a tremendous effort in behalf of my family.” I love you, I love you, I love you” repeated three times. Where have you heard that before? I think Norma had to say it three times so that her words could catch up with her heart that was so full of love. She loved everyone. She would make dozens of calls every month, just to wish the people she loved “happy birthday”. Norma found joy in caring for others throughout her entire life. She gladly put her own life on hold many times so she could help others in their time of need. I believe that was the theme of her life. Norma was very grateful. She always said, “thank you” for even the smallest things. I have never heard my mother say a bad word about anyone. She loved to listen to others and was very humble. Norma was born March 1, 1916 in Cove, Oregon a small town near LeGrande and soon after, she moved to Walla Walla, Washington with her family because of her father’s job with the railroad. Her father’s name was Ivy Aubra Hallmark, but everyone just called him “Bud”. And her mother’s name was Mary Luella Grow Hallmark. Norma was the oldest child in the family. She had a sister, Arleatha Betty Jeane, and three brothers, James David, John Ivy and Ronald Grow Hallmark. Norma learned at an early age that she had to help out around the house and care for her siblings. Her sister, Betty Jeane, contracted tuberculosis and her mother Mary Luella had to take her to Seattle for treatments. Norma had to take over since they sometimes were gone for weeks at a time. Mary Luella’s sister in law died. She had a son named Bernard Grow who was three years old at the time. So Norma spent several months with the family taking care of the little boy until the family could get on its feet. A short time later in 1936, Betty Jeane died at the age of thirteen. This was difficult for Norma because she loved her so much. Little did she know that this scenario would play out over and over again in her life. Norma was what you would call a “popular dancing partner”. She had lots of friends and sometimes her brothers would take her to the dances too. Dancing was her favorite pastime. However, after Norma graduated from high school, her mother was a bit worried because all the young men she dated were non-LDS. There were no eligible bachelors, in the small branch she attended. Mary Luella really wanted her daughter to be married and sealed in the temple. Now, Mary Luella had a sister, Margaret Lambert, who lived in San Francisco and Mary Luella and Margaret hatched a plan. They would tell Norma that Margaret needed help with her two boys, Richard and Jim, in order to get her into more, shall we say, “Favorable dating circumstances”. Norma was excited about the opportunity and left for San Francisco soon after. Aunt Margaret lived near Golden Gate Park. Norma was so happy because there were lots of dances and church socials to attend. She sang in the choir, and at choir practice she noticed a handsome young man looking at her. She smiled at him and he smiled at her and the romance of her lifetime began to unfold. That handsome young man was my father, William Lester Hawkins. Soon, Les asked her to become his bride and she said, “I think I’m going to need to sleep on it”. Before Norma could make a decision, she received a call from a friend at home in Walla Walla. The friend told her that her mother Mary Luella was very ill. So Norma returned home to find her mother ill with cancer.Her younger brothers needed a mother and her mother needed a nursemaid so Norma got to work. Years passed and one day Les came to visit. He said “Norma, this is the last time I’m going to ask you to marry me”. It had been five years since his first proposal. Mary Luella died of cancer at the age of forty four in 1941. After she died Norma was missing for an entire day. She was found curled up in a ball in the closet under the stairway where she had been grieving, alone in the darkness. Les and Norma were married and sealed in the Salt Lake Temple May 27, 1942. This was the happiest day of Norma’s life, so far. Along with Les, Norma got a beautiful daughter, nine year old Patricia Lee Hawkins. Pat said, “Norma was more of a mother to me than my birth mother. I never felt like a step daughter.” I’m sure that was because Norma felt she was her daughter and loved her dearly. Les and Norma began their life together and lived in San Rafael, just north of the golden gate bridge. And it was there that she brought two wonderful sons into the world, David Lester Hawkins and Keith Jan Hawkins. Norma loved taking care of babies. At last she was living the life that she had always dreamed about. In 1947 they moved to Utah. They purchased a home on eighth east in Orem that is now the site of an office building near University Mall. But in those days eighth east was a dirt road. Norma had her own horse named Queenie. She rode her horse every day up and down eighth east. One day some boys put a string of fire crackers in a mail box. As the horse passed the fire crackers went off and the horse reared up and took off galloping out of control. Norma was really frightened but said a quick prayer to Heavenly Father to save her. The horse stopped immediately and she was safe. Norma had great faith in the power of prayer. Norma brought another son into the world soon after. Some of my first memories were of my mother reading to me. I remember that she called me into the house from playing outside to have a little rest. She did this every day. She always read exciting and fun stories to me. My favorite was a book called “A story to tell”. It had about fifty short stories and I would get a different one each day. I remember the soothing sound of her voice and how special she made me feel. I liked this so much that when school started, I decided to pretend to be sick, just so I could be home with her and hear a story. When I told her I was sick that day, she came quickly with a thermometer. She told me to keep it under my tongue for two minutes and then left the room. We had an old heating oil stove in our home. While she was gone I took the thermometer out of my mouth and put it near the heating oil stove until the temperature rose a little. It worked. She believed me and I got to stay home. I have such fond memories of her reading to me. It was so dear to my heart. It was years later, after I was a grown man, that we were talking. I discovered that my mother knew all along that I was playing a trick on her. She really didn’t mind at all because she loved our time together too. She looked forward to each time I played the little prank. Norma was a wonderful baker. We had lots of cookies, pies, cakes and other scrumptious food while we were growing up. She endured all the illness, trips to the hospital, financial hardships, and challenges that life brings, with meekness. She had never ending patience for her very active children and always spoke softly and kindly. The worst thing I ever heard her say was, “you kids are really going to be in trouble when your father gets home”, but we usually never were. Most of the time, she defended us or tried to minimize our mishaps. My brother Jan and I were boxing one day. This was supposed to be an outdoor activity, but on this day we were in our bedroom. The boxing got a little out of control and the next thing we knew, there was a giant hole in the wall. We decided to cover up the hole with wacky plack cards taped together to the size we needed for concealment, which was about a square foot, but that just delayed our fate for a short period of time. This was one of those times. But after we received our punishment from Dad, she hugged us and told us how much she loved us. There were lots of other incidents but I don’t want to embarrass my brothers. Dad died suddenly in May of 1970 with a heart attack. Mom was really lost without him. She decided to turn her grief toward the temple and worked at the Provo Temple for several years. She had the opportunity in her lifetime to perform over a thousand endowments for those who have passed on. Some time passed and she received a call that her father Ivy Aubra Hallmark had experienced a stroke. She went to Walla Walla and found that Grandpa Bud was partially paralyzed. She stayed several weeks and then returned to Utah. Who do you think she brought home with her? If you were thinking Grandpa Bud, you are right. She cared for him meticulously for several years. This was a great time for me because I got to know my Grandpa and it was one of the happiest times of Norma’s life because she was near the father that she adored. Grandpa Bud died in January of 1982. Mother had an aunt, Cora Pearl Grow Fowers, her mother’s sister. She lived in San Diego, California. Soon after Grandpa died, Aunt Pearl, unannounced, knocked at Norma’s door. When mother opened the door, Aunt Pearl said immediately, “Norma if you don’t take me in, I’m going to walk into the Pacific Ocean and die”. They embraced and Norma cared for her for several years, until her death in October 1989. And, so this was the pattern of Norma’s life. The aforementioned were not the only ones that Norma cared for until each time of need passed. And always she was there for us. During 1996, I came to her door. I was unhappy about how my life had turned out, up to that point. She offered me words of encouragement. She said, “You have got to have hope and faith the future will be better.” I said to her, “How many times do I have to try”? And she said to me, “until you get it right son¸ until you get it right”, and that’s the miracle of our Savior’s love. Two years later, as a result of her encouragement, I got to go to the temple on a beautiful day in June and be sealed to the love of my life, my sweet wife Kris. And mother, each day I know I’ve got to keep trying to get it right and that is the miracle of a mother’s love.
