I had the great good fortune to serve under Admiral Baciocco as a junior officer on the SubRon 4 Staff and later as an Executive Officer and Commanding Officer at SubGru 6. He took time to teach us and then let us do our jobs. Of all my Flag Officer bosses, he ranks highest. Very sorry to see him go.

Cynthia and I offer our condolences and prayers for you, Janie, and for all of your family. It is an honor to have met both of you a dozen or so years ago and a professional and personal pleasure to work with Al on the various Boards that we served on together. I am so glad that you both came to Dallas for our wedding activities in 2010 and again later for a visit with the Dehlsens. You are both dear friends. Our love and support remain with you.

Adm Baciocco had just left the Office of Naval Research when I arrived, but I heard a lot of great things about him. His photo in our "Hall of Admirals" remains as does the memory of his good works while servicing at ONR. My sympathy to the family

I deeply regret the loss of my long time friend and fellow submariner, Al. He was my back door neighbor in Charleston in 1965 and had remained a mentor in my Naval career. He has been a leader in keeping the Low Country and the Navy connected for 50 years and his service will be sorely missed.

Please accept my deepest sympathy for the lose of Cousin Al. I saw him at Bernice's funeral and it was so good to see him. He will be missed.

Al's and my paths were separate until we both became flag officers in the same year. Later, Mary and I were fortunate to spend more time with him and Janie in Charleston. He was a real gentleman and a fine flag officer.
We send our deepest condolences.
