Fallen Marine Honored in Mass.
A local soldier killed in Iraq, was honored Sunday in Seekonk, when the local post office was named after Lance Corporal Eric Paul Valdepeņas.
Valdepeņas was killed in September of 2006, when the vehicle he was riding in ran over a road side bomb.
While in Iraq, Valdepeņas was apart of a group that helped rescue a sick Iraqi baby, by getting her out of a war zone, and to the United States for medical treatment.
Sunday, friends and family gathered to remember the fallen soldier, as Seekonk's post office was named in his honor, to pay tribute to his accomplishments in the the Marines.
