Floyd was a good shipmate and one of my oldest friends. Our friendship began when we served together in Halfbeak in 1964 - 1965 and later, when we had families, our families were friends as well.

Farewell old shipmate and friend.
Floyd and I became friends in early 1964 when I reported aboard USS Halfbeak where he was a TM2(SS) in the after torpedo room and I was a non-qual. Floyd was always fun and always a good and loyal friend.
He loved the Navy and the submarine force to which he devoted the best twenty-five years of his life.
I will always remember Floyd as one of my best lifelong friends.

Lee, I just now was informed of Floyd's demise. He was a true friend and the epitome of the word "Shipmate". I'll see you tomorrow at the service.

Lee and Family, our thoughts are with you in this time of loss. As you may remember Floyd and I served together on USS Thomas Edison SSBN (610 ) Blue where Floyd was the LPO for the Torpedo room and then Launcher LPO and I was his Department Head. I will miss Floyd's E-Mails and the opportunities to get together at the VFW when I have visited Pawcatuck sense moving to Vermont. May TMCS(SS) Windle's eternal patrol be blessed with Fair winds and ...
