Default Thank you

Thank you to everyone for your heartfelt condolences.

One last thing of note...
It was Tony's request to have his ashes delivered to the depths via a torpedo tube launch. The vessel to carry his ashes??? His hand made model submarine which was well over 6 feet long with working masts and periscope. One of many that he made over the years.

This guy lived, breathed, and quite litterally died submarines! I was very lucky to share a part of his remarkable life.


THE SUBMARINERS CREED:
"TO PERPETUATE THE MEMORY OF OUR SHIPMATES WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES IN THE PURSUIT OF THEIR DUTIES WHILE SERVING THEIR COUNTRY. THAT THEIR DEDICATION, DEEDS AND SUPREME SACRIFICE BE A SOURCE OF MOTIVATION TOWARDS GREATER ACCOMPLISHMENTS."


Regards to all,
