Hi Ted and Donald,
I just wanted to say to you how sorry I am of the recent passing of your Dad. My Mom was also a resident of WHC (Martha DiMarzio). We only met the night your Dad passed and we briefly spoke. You and your brother were so gracious, on the day of your Dad's funeral, to stop by Sweeney Bros. Funeral Home and pay final respect to my Mom.
Thank you so much for being so kind. May your journey in life now be full of great memories and may you enjoy your children and grandchildren. May your Dad rest in peace.

Gionnie Healey (Martha's daughter)

Mr. Boyle,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served with the U.S. Naval Construction Battalions during WW II. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy. The Seabees were some of the unsung heroes of the War-they built airfields, advanced bases, and naval anchorages and were always ready to put down their tools and pick up a weapon and fight if they had to.

Seabees-Can Do!
