Not sure what to say?

On behalf of all personnel who served aboard the U.S.S. Sepulga (AO-20) with Richard; Little that we can do or say will console you for the death of Richard. We profoundly appreciate the greatness of your loss, for in a very real sense, the loss is suffered by all who knew him. When this note reaches you, we want you to know that it goes with our sincerest sympathy, and hope that time will lighten your grief. Sincerely,

I have the great gift of knowing Mr. Urquhart and many of his family members. I believe I met my first Urquhart when I was about 9 at Camp Leach. I became fast friends with his dear daughter, Patricia, about 15 years ago and met Mr. Urquhart then. I will always remember him and the great love that his family shares and that they have shared with me. No one can replace him....I am just thankful that I knew him and know his precious family. I really can't believe he is gone. Love to all of his...
