CAPT Arthur S. Poole Jr., USN (Ret.)

Karyn, Ellen and Thomas

Seeger was my first commanding officer. As a young ensign, he was a huge influence in my life at that time.

He was the finest officer with whom I served and a terrific engineer. I enjoyed working with him in Thomas’ Boy Scout pack.

I thought of him often and told many Seeger leadership stories over the years.

He and you are in my thoughts and prayers.

A fine naval officer and fellow CEC officer. Had the privilege of working with Seeger several times during my 26 year naval career. One of the best of the best. Bruce Geibel.

Seeger was 13 years my senior. We first met when I was a newly minted Lieutenant. He taught me many things about being successful in the Civil Engineer Corps. Great dedication to the Navy, inspiring leader, great sense of humor. I will long remember his kindness towards me.

Fine Officer, smart, inventive, caring, good friend. Privileged to have served with him, Bill Zobel.

Karin, God bless you and your family. They just didn't come any better than Seeger. I always considered him one of the very best CEC Officers we had and used his advice many times over the years. We will miss him greatly and will never forget all you did to support him in his CEC career. Warmest personal regards, Jack and Robin Buffington.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

Karin, Ellen, Thomas, and Family-- Our hearts grieve with you. Seeger was much more than "darn good" at anything he wanted to do. Anyone, and there were many of us, who knew him knows that we all lost a great man, a true gentleman, and a good friend.....
