HOF, my gosh, I cant even begin to put into words how devastating this news is. Your lovely Bride called to share the news and she referred to me as "Doctor Dibble of the Dance Hall Doctors." I wanted to cry..okay, I did. I can't even conceive of the fact that you actually thought enough of this junior Sailor to refer to me in your own private time. But then again, I really shouldn't be surprised at all. Thats exactly the man that you were...or ARE, because your spirit and legacy will always live on in the Sailors you led and trained. GOD BLESS YOU SIR AND ONE LAST THING ...Watch out for those slippery decks, "Slippery When Wet"

Hand Salute to you sir and your blessed family are all in my prayers. I cant put into words getting a call and seeing HOF on the screen as I kept you in my phone.

VR,
YN1(AW) Dibble

Kirk and I served together in our first fleet squadron, VA-22. I remember our flight from the west coast to the Philippines to join it. He was a fine pilot and officer and a good guy.
