April 20, 2016
While I never had the pleasure of sailing with Robert, I was a FTB2(SS) aboard the USS Ethan Allen SSB(N) 608 from 1963-1966 and so we were both involved in Fire Control.
Just wanted to offer my sincere condolences for the passing of a great 'boomer' sailor.

My dear brother,
How proud we were of you for having served your country with such distinction. Now you are shipping out on your last cruise with your beautiful bride at your side.
The legacy you left behind is truly amazing.
I will miss you dearly.
Love,

God saw you getting tired
And a cure was not to be,
So He put His arms around you
And whispered "Come to Me."

Rest, our Salty Sailor, for now ye are home.
No more to wander, no more to ponder,
no farther on earth to roam.
Your bones groan no more, your heart no longer thirsts,
for sailing fair seas you will forever be,
sleeping aloft in our Lord's sweet berth.
Gone from us you are, but never very far,
for in our minds and hearts you are, forever sailing home.
Brother Paul
