Christine,
We are all still sadened by the passing of our friend Cullen and find it hard to believe it has been 20 years since he left St. Augustine. Recently the 'old gang' got together and we stopped and toasted our friend.
Memories will soon not be forgotten.
All the best,
Paul, Catalina, Virginia, Rusty, Dianne, and Nancy.

The entire lighthouse preservation community grieves with Christine and the rest of Cullen's family. He was a particularly bright light in the effort to preserve America's maritime heritage, and he was a true gentleman and a good friend. A recipient of the Ross Holland Award for lifetime achievement in lighthouse preservation, he leaves an amazing legacy of contributions to the heritage he worked so hard to preserve. We will deeply miss him. On behalf of myself and the U.S. Lighthouse...
