John Shipway

I knew him as Commander Dugan Shipway. I haven't seen him in 35 years or so, but I never forgot his name. He was my neighbor and help launch one of my life's favorite hobbies, downhill skiing. The Commander sold me my first pair of skis, Olin Mark IV's. I earned them, actually, by cutting his (square) yard (diagonally) for the summer of '86. I was just looking at those skis last night and wondered what became of my old friend. Sail on and Godspeed.

My sincerest of condolences to you Lynn. Served as Admin Officer for Dugan at NPTU Ballston Spa. I admired Dugan and he was one of the top CO's I worked for in my 30 years of naval service. RIP shipmate. PAJ, LCDR, USN, Ret

He will be greatly missed by his classmates of CV. So very glad he encouraged us for a reunion when we reached 80. It was a wonderful time for us all. Rest in peace dear friend.

I'm proud to have known John before he was Dugan, meeting him at the University of Louisville's Speed School. While our paths never crossed until the last few years, it seemed he never changed. He retained his sense of humor and bonds of friendship with many. We'll miss his insight and devotion to God and country, Farewell old friend. Gordon Spence CDR, CEC, USNR (Ret) CDR, CEC, USNR (ret)

It started 62.5 years ago at the University of Louisville. We connected through Theta Tau Fraternity, the NROTC Training Unit, and our Chemical Engineering major. It developed into a strong and lasting friendship with many connections after graduation. As one of our fraternity brothers said: "We are all diminished by Dugan's passing. RIP good and constant friend.

To Lynn and the Shipway Family our sincere condolences. I will always remember John as a special classmate during our time together in Chemical Engineering at Univ of Louisville during the 1960´s. It was John´s dry sense of humor that helped us get through difficult academic classes with some of our "interesting" professors. I will always remember these times. RIP John! Charles Williams, P.E.

Served under then Capt Shipway at NPTU Ballston Spa. Thank you to Admiral Shipway for your career of service to our country. May God bless you and condolences to your family and many friends.

I hold many good memories from my time working for Admiral Shipway as a member of his SEA 92 Front Office staff. Dynamic and dedicated to submarine programs and initiatives, he kept us motivated and engaged, and he did it with humor and wit. RIP Admiral Shipway. My deepest sympathy to Lynn and family.
