Not sure what to say?

It was with great pleasure that I would take Commodore Risher out to Country Road at Indian Harbor. He was very polite, soft spoken and respectful. We had some great conversations together regarding our mutual interests in music and boating. My fondest memory will be of him sitting by the seawall in the afternoon gazing out over the water and saying how beautiful it was!

I am so sorry to hear about your dad's passing. He was so kind to Jay and me when my family took my mother to Hawaii for her 80th birthday in 1985. Paul arranged for all 5 of us to have a wonderful tour of all the islands on one of his planes. It took all day and it was a highlight of our trip. I'm sure you have wonderful memories of your dad and mother. Both wonderful parents. Those memories help to get through these difficult times.

Our condolences to the Risher family. We will always remember the wonderful hours we spent together competing in the Ensigns, chasing his boat Happy with the big North sail, the wonderful sunday ice cream parties after the race . We will all miss him and mourn the passing of another salty dog .
