Honoring a fallen Marine

CHARLOTTE -- A Providence High School graduate lost his life in the line of duty.

Marine Lance Corporal Cliff Golla, 21, died near central Iraq on Friday in a roadside bomb attack. Golla was serving his second tour in Iraq.

He was the only son of Polish immigrants Chris and Yvonna Golla.

His sister says the family knows Cliff loved being a Marine but his death is still hard.

Lance Corporal Golla was part of the 3rd Battalion, Lima Company based out of Camp Lejeune. Funeral arrangements are incomplete.
